I live in the Pacific Northwest in Washington State. Born in a small seaside town much like the setting for Dead Space, I love the ocean. But I also love the mountains and this beautiful land I live in.
My children are long haired and furry — two are twin cockapoos and two are long haired cats. It's an all-girl household.
Having retired at sixty-five from a life of bookkeeping and floral design writing has enhanced my life in beautiful ways. Between feeding, grooming, and loving, there's barely any time to write — but I make the most of it.
I am so very appreciative of your support, and I hope you have as much fun reading my books as I had writing them. And yes — Butch is very much based off of my crazy children!
Thanks for visiting.
