About Me

Originally from California, I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area. I have written since a small child and published poems and short-stories in school magazines. In high school I had a short story submitted to a literary festival. I joined the Navy at nineteen and met my future husband while stationed in Greece. After living overseas and raising two boys, we settled in Virginia where I again pursued my love of writing. I joined a chapter of the Virginia Writers Club and work as a free-lance editor.

As well as being published in, I edited their second anthology, Riverside Echoes. I designed and edit the chapter’s website. I worked as a historical editor for The Wild Rose Press, and write book reviews for the Historical Novels Review
