Member Since
July 2014


I was born and raised in the Midwest, but unabashedly aspired for adventure elsewhere, following my parents' model.

I live in southern California, where seasons seldom matter and where any promise can be conjured and fulfilled. I write while my husband watches TV sports, which are always in season = often.

Kidnapped!

I recently posed the question above on social media. For TGIF fun and to promote engagement among my plentiful group of friends. Because, as you may know, writing is a solitary, often lonely occupation, and I am undeniably outgoing—a solid extrovert.

Further, the protracted and monstrous case of Samantha Guthrie’s mother being abducted from her home has weighed on my heart, along with the numer
