Welcome! This is where I try to make sense of life by rearranging words. I have always been a writer, but spent the majority of my career as a music and theater teacher, often writing plays, songs, and dialogue for my students. Now retired, and devoted to writing fulltime, I just published my sixth book. I also write, direct, and act in my apocalyptic comedy fiction podcast, GERTRUDE STUNT GIRL ZOMBIE KILLER with a stunning ensemble cast, including my daughter who plays Gertrude, and does sound design and editing. We have another ensemble fiction podcast , LITTLE MINI MURDERS, coming out in early 2025. Besides writing, I enjoy painting, reading, and cultivating sarcasm. My favorite way to spend a day is with my husband and adult children, playing Euchre, finding our favorite stars through our telescope, and driving my kids crazy with stupid puns and songs. One of my life goals is to open a shop where I can drink chai tea and do Tai Chi. Actually, my goal is to have someone else open that place so I can hang out there all the time.

​

I come from a long line of storytellers, and my favorite thing is to connect with others through stories and ideas. So, while you're here, have a look around. Take a bite and chew on some words for a while. You may find something you like. Please let me know if you enjoy my content. If you don't, you can tell me that too. 

Thanks for stopping by.
