About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Take the road less traveled and realize that everyone I meet has a story that I want to hear.

ABOUT ME

I am a full-time writer. I have two grown daughters and have been married since 1985 to my high school sweetheart.

I love to people watch. I never learned anything from someone that I always agreed with. I hate arguing, but love a good debate. I know the difference, unfortunately my husband does not :)

I am random and often inappropriate. I enjoy a good off-color joke.

PHILOSOPHY

I whole-heartily believe in Karma.
You're never too old for a new dream.
Strangers are just friends we've yet to meet.
I love the poem, Desiderata.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
