Biographie:
Of the many jobs I've held in the past, teaching was one of the most enjoyable for me because investing in kids is so important. To this end, I continue to encourage good character with clean, moral stories kids and teens love to read. Good books make such an impact! Writing is hard work, but there's nothing like a good story to run off with your imagination. When things are flowing, it's like a vacation! Sometimes the best ideas come in the middle of the night.When not writing, you'll find me painting with watercolor, doing school visits, writing a blog, interviewing other writers, designing websites, working as an administrative assistant part-time, and renovating houses. Is this retirement? Apparently so! I'm loving every minute of it with my husband of 42 years....
