Writing has long been a passion of mine. I began writing poems and short stories at the age of seven. I live in picturesque East Texas with my husband of nearly 40 years. I am fortunate enough to live close to my grown children and two grandchildren, and they all visit frequently. If the kids and grandkids didn't make my home wild enough, we have a household full of cats (seven outdoor cats and four inside cats) as well as two parakeets.

I work full time as a senior manager of learning programs for a consulting firm. I have a Ph.D. in learning technologies.

In my spare time, I enjoy reading romance, fantasy, and mystery stories, sewing, and crocheting.

I was going to wait until my kids were grown to get started. I got the best advise from another writer who told me not to wait, but to start writing now, even if it was only for a few minutes every day. Because of her advise, I got started, and eventually finished my novel. Don't wait! Write!(less)

Love in Action: Practicing Compassion in Your Community

As Christians, we are called to reflect God’s love in all aspects of our lives. The Bible teaches us to love our neighbors as ourselves, but what does that look like in practice? Living out this love goes beyond words—it requires action. In today’s fast-paced world, where compassion is often overshadowed by individualism, small acts […]Delivered by PolitePaul service

“Writing a book is a horrible, exhausting struggle, like a long bout with some painful illness. One would never undertake such a thing if one were not driven on by some demon whom one can neither resist nor understand.”
