I began writing short stories in grade school. On rainy days, the teacher would let me read one or two for the class. I had a beat up old binder that I wrote all my literary treasures in. In high school, I realized my earlier work stank—but by then, I was determined to become a writer. As time passed—and it does quickly, I found—my writing improved, my ability to tell a story, and my determination increased tenfold. Life got in the way when I married and even more so when our daughter was born. When our little princess was three, I began writing short Christian stories and submitting them to Christian magazines. I was thrilled when my first story was accepted.

Many magazine stories and Sunday school lessons later, I’m trying my hand at longer works. I write Inspirational romance as well as paranormal and fantasy romance. I love reading mysteries and may one day try to write one.

When I’m not at my computer, I enjoy traveling with my husband and spending time with our daughter. I love to shop, entertain at home, and meet new people. One of my favorite pastimes is reading.

I’d love to hear from readers.
