Some people write these bio things in third person, but I figure you know I’m the one sitting here writing it… so it seems a bit silly for me to write like I’m someone else. :-)
For the last two decades or so, I’ve been actively pursuing my dream of being published. I’ve been writing for about as long as I can remember, but I didn’t decide I wanted to do this ‘for real’ until 1995 – shortly after my mother’s death.
After my mom died, I was helping my dad go through all the paperwork and nonsense that seems to explode after someone passes. We found a box… but not just a normal box of files. In this box, no word of a lie, was everything I had ever written … EVER. Book reports, essays, short stories, poems, story outlines… it was all there. Whether it was just a piece of paper or a formal, bound story… she had it.
Finding that box made me realize… more to the point, it made me ‘see’ what my mother had seen all my life. I was a writer.
My first manuscript has never been published (wow… I knew nothing when I wrote it), but my second manuscript titled “Precious Things” is now available. Along with my other contemporary romance, romantic suspense, and scifi romance books.
I’ve been published with three publishing houses, but as of 2018 I am publishing independently.
I hope you enjoy…
