I am the New Southern Tale-spinner! Contemporary stories with traditional southern flavoring-, but it doesn't stop there. Add a defined and sophisticated ethnic pinch of spice, and the feast is on! The tales are spun from my comfy front porch rocker, but the characters are universal: From every walk in life; every ethnicity; every social position, attitude, temperament-, saints and sinners. I've written stories my entire life, and life just keeps giving me more to write. Can't say that I have an absolute favorite-, admittedly in love with all my leading-men characters; adore every child character, I am "every woman," so, it's difficult to name a winning title. My first literary publication was a song when I was eleven. The second, my freshmen year English Comp essay. A Broadcast Journalist for thirty-five years, novel writing remained a sidekick occupation-, writing for the joy of writing. Although I've actively marketed my work since the nineties, I still write because I enjoy it, more than targeting a million dollar book deal. I've written/produced several stage plays and documentary films, and entertaining the idea of doing other projects-, maybe. I don't do 'self-help or 'how-to' books, but two of my titles tells how I've survived real-life tragedies in my life. A long battle with multiple sclerosis and lupus adds another seasoning to "The New Southern Tale-spinner's" tales. I do read my own novels-, really! When I'm not doing that, crossword puzzles, cryptograms and doing absolutely nothing fills a few hours of my day. Doing 'nothing' is the hardest of all tasks. My brain is always on go, even when my body becomes reluctant to move.
