Like her sisters, Roise is a hawk shapeshifter who was born to fight the dreaded she'ravens. Roise commands the fiercely independent desert sirenhawks even while she battles against ancient magic and the capricious gods who like to play games with people's lives.
I wake up every morning thinking about the story I have yet to write and the pictures I have yet to paint. I am compelled by nature to create. Like most modern women, I wear lots of hats. I am the parent of six beautifully adult children, a registered nurse by profession, an artist and illustrator by passion and a writer because if I don't get all the stories in my head on paper soon, my brain will surely pop!
Favorite things: The smell of oil paint being applied to canvas, animals big and small, the Northwest, oceans, mountains, rain and iced lattes.
