I am so humbled to have my book, “The Town of Alpaca”, as a finalist in The CIPA EVVY Awards contest. Thank you, Outskirts Press for affording me this honor. I will be in Colorado on August 17th!

I'm just me: wife, Mom, Mimi, nurse, and writer. My first book, "The Giggle Box", was published by the now-closed Peak City Publishing in Apex, NC.

My second book, "The Town of Alpaca", has now been published by Outskirts Press. Coming soon: "The Prettiest House on the Block", a memoir for a survivor of Domestic Violence, which will be released in September 2020 by Blue Heron Book Works in Allentown, Pa.

We have four children and five grandchildren, to date, who are all lights in my life.
