I am a native of Minnesota living in Pennsylvania. Both states have so much to offer. I have always loved wherever I have lived (including Colorado and Europe). My husband and I have five children. They are a wonderful source of material! My favorite job was working for a weekly newspaper. Nothing beats that intimacy with the readership.

In third grade, the teacher sent a poem of mine to a classroom children's magazine. We were all so excited and I anxiously awaited the arrival of the magazine each month. The poem never was published (my first rejection) but that was a pivotal experience for me. I believed, and others did too, that I was a writer.
I graduated from St. Cloud State University with a BS in Speech Communication/Theatre Arts. In high school and college my creative writing teachers were most encouraging.

'Cool Spring' is a fun romance for all ages. Share it with any female in your family or circle of friends. Be daring and give it to a guy. 'The Mystery of Apartment 2A' will be enjoyed by children who read chapter books, and adults who read chapter books too! Both are available from the publisher and online stores. They can also be ordered from any bookstore - give them ISBN 1591293448 for 'Cool Spring' and ISBN 1413742521 for 'The Mystery of Apartment 2A'.
