I grew up on a dairy farm, northwest of Towands, Kansas and wrote my first book in the second grade. Many years passed before a journalist suggested I write an article for the local newspaper. That sparked a thirty-year writing career that has provided much joy. Along the way, I also enjoyed a career as a travel agent from which I am now retired.
Ten years ago, I enrolled in Bible Study Fellowship and have since graduated and currently going through the course again. It was through these classes that I added yet another form of writing career--the Christian market. Since, I have been fortunate to write for several Christian magazines, secular publications, and a Christian novel.
These days I devote all my time to writing and working for my church. If my writing touches one person in a positive way, I am truly grateful.
In 2010, AWOC publishers released my first devotional book, Devoted to Traveling. The book is a chronicle of my travels written with lessons learned. I have since revised this book and it has been republished as Devoted to Traveling: Revised Edition.
I loved writing that book, and then progressed to fiction. Published credits include several years as a journalist for two local newspapers, articles in magazines, periodicals, and eight published books, including two non-fiction books. All books are available in paperback as well as eBooks.
The Plane Tree in Provence series includes five books which details the adventures, soulsearching, and mischief of five women who by happenstance, become life-long friends. The first book, A Plane Tree in Provence won first place in the Kansas Authors Club contest of 2011.
Angel on My Shoulder, is a stand alone book (Christian Fiction Novel) set in Brooklyn, New York and tells the story of Pringle Taylor, who is engaged to the wrong man, loses her job, and finds herself changing everything in her life.
Lessons from Maine is a non-fiction book which centers on my writing retreats taken each year to Maine for the past twenty plus years.
