About the author

I’ve been a reader since the age of three, because my resourceful mom wanted to keep me busy while she looked after my baby brother. Flicka, Ricka, and Dicka kept me entertained, as well as Little Brown Bear, The Bobbsey Twins, and later, Nancy Drew.

Coming from a traditional Southern family, I didn’t receive encouragement to do anything with the stories I scribbled on notebook paper. A good marriage and being a proper Southern lady was the ideal.

How dull that seemed! I wanted adventure. To save the world. Somehow during that quest, I lost my way, fell in love, and got married. How did I become a manufacturer of lightweight concrete air-conditioner pads? A long story.

I never stopped writing. And when my kids were in school, I took some classes. Then I stepped out into the adventurous world of words with joy.
