I'm a writer who secretly wishes she was a full-time adventurer and world traveler. Writing (and reading) allows me to travel to distant lands and meet fascinating people, visit exotic places, and explore the far reaches of my mind. This began in childhood when I read dozens of books in the backyard, lying under a leafy tree, leading an adventurous life! Anything was possible. Now I yearn to sit behind my computer/typewriter while looking out at the ocean (or lake or river or sea) and let my imagination soar.
Just finished my novel, Saving Phoebe Murrow, a contemporary story of Facebook gone wrong, mothers and daughters, girls and mean girls...a mystery, a psychological domestic thriller...a book to read while sitting before a turbulent ocean or a quiet lake.
I've also written short fiction and memoir, that's been published in literary journals and anthologies.
