I have always been a reader. And now I live my dream of being a writer. My greatest desire is to have people use my writing for entertainment, escape, travel in time, let the stress of the day fall away. It's not a prize for best selling or anything like that. I know what it is like to have nothing and yet feel rich because of what I am reading. To be princess in a place I've never been. Or felt like I was so ugly no guy could ever really see me... until I picked up a great book and immersed myself in it.

I am married, have 2 grown kids, who in turn have gifted my husband and I with 5 grandchildren, 1 great grandson and soon another great grandson. I have had several careers: retired US Air Force, Retired Church Secretary and Senior Pastor's private secretary, Mary Kay Beauty Consultant/Director, and finally Custom/Designer Dog clothing. Now I'm in the middle of a fabulous career as a writer. 

I've lived in Turkey and England, visited Mexico, Canada, Germany. Plus lived/visited the following states: Texas, George, North Carolina, Florida, Louisiana, Missouri, Indiana, Wisconsin, North Dakota, New Mexico, California, Oregon, Hawaii (Big Island, Oahu, Maui), Wyoming, Illinois, Michigan, and Washington. One more state: Arizona, where we now reside.
