International travel as a "camp follower" to a husband whose job took them to some strange places provided interesting subject matter for her fiction. 

She has written several novels, two of which are published. In addition, hundreds of short stories, some of which will be featured in a future book, have been crafted on her keyboard. The list of courses she has taken in writing, journalism, and even marketing is too long to list but each and every one of those courses added something to her knowledge of the craft.
