edit data

I write. I edit. I blog. I create community projects for my creative, awesome town of Montclair, NJ.

I've written seven teen novels for Scholastic including Breakfast at Bloomingdale's. I've recently written for glossies such as Modern Bride. I currently post 17 articles per week for CafeMom.com, and I do everything for my website, MontclairKids.com, and for my suburban writing retreat center, WritersLoft.org. I teach professional, intensive fiction and non-fiction classes in New York City and NJ as well.
