After many years of writing non-fiction books as well as magazine and newspaper articles, it was a thrill for me when my debut novel was published in 2012. Since then, I've written one oher and have several started...all while hitting the restart button on my life after the death of my husband,

I live on a mini-farm in Central/North Alabama with my dachshund (who is named Kindle...I also have several of the tablet kind too) and several chickens. I recently renovated an unloved house and am making it our home.

Reading is my first love, but writing comes in a close second. I enjoy both reading and writing in a multitude of genres (pretty much anything except horror...real life can have enough without adding it via the written word). While Behind the Grey (and those to follow in the series of "Women of the Civil War") is set on southern battlefields and home front in the era of the American Civil War, my second novel (coming spring 2013) Hot Bubbles and Chocolate is a modern-day chick lit about a middle aged southern woman who tries her hand at internet dating, with disastrous results. I'm not sure which will be my publisher's third choice, but at some point my paranormal "The Girl in the Mirror" will be available.

I love meeting new people, and I personally answer all emails (especially those that come via my website, since those don't ever get lost in my spam filter).
