I am writing again, thirty years later, after my first couple books. This time I am writing children's picture books. The first one, in July 2025, was "Little Girl Again" from my poem of that same title, written soon after I completed my time as my mother's caregiver during her Alzheimer's.
Background
Information
I am a community college librarian, former caregiver to a mother with Alzheimer's, and I am a cat mom. Most of my writing has been about my family, especially my mother, and about growing up on a farm in Cleburne County Alabama. I've also done a series "Cat Mama Librarian's Cats" about my four cats, Cocoa, Tiger, Misty, and Elsa. I have walked for 28 years in memory of my mother with the Alzheimer's Association in the Walk to End Alzheimer's. Royalties from my books go to this cause.
A Year to Remember
My caregiving journal, poetry, photos, and information about Alzheimer's and dementia. My first book, Waiting for the Morning, came from this site which has been online since 1996.
