A love triangle of extremes has proven to be a solid base for my writing. From my roots in Alaska I receive strength, solitude, centeredness and respect for the awful power of nature. In Hawaii I found nurturing, a spiritual awakening, sensuality, peace and my heroine for my historical fiction, Wai-nani-A Voice from Old Hawaii. In proud California I obtained a degree in English Literature and a doctorate in urban savvy. I continue to enjoy opportunities here for intellectual stimulation, exciting contacts and friends. It makes a great base for exploits that I share in my travel collection Lost Angel Walkabout-One Traveler's Tales.

Embrace of the Wild is historical fiction based on the adventurous life of Isabella Bird, a woman who broke through social and physical barriers to become the best-loved travel writer of her day. (1831-1904)

My new-adult novel The Cowgirl Jumped Over the Moon, is an action-adventure novel that takes you the high Sierra.
