I began my writing career at the age of eight when I wrote the sequel to two of my favorite scary movies : The Headless Horseman and When a Stranger Calls. What is an eight-year-old doing watching such movies, you ask? Beats me, I cant quite remember, but I think that this is where the germs for creativity and for wanting - no needing - to write came from.
My storylines have changed over the years. And after reading several Nora Roberts novels, I thought, "Gee, I can do that."
Yeah, not so easy, but I am working on it.
I have completed seven novels. Some published, some waiting to be published, all labors of love and creativity. My focus is the romance genre, but my poetry has been published in several anthology books as well as the TWW newsletter
I belong to Romance Writers of America, Yellow Rose (RWA), DARA (RWA), Kiss of Death (RWA), Hearts through History (RWA), PASIC (RWA), Beau Monde (RWA), and Trinity Writers Workshop.
