A degree in journalism and a lifelong communications career introduced me to wonderful people and projects in public affairs, public relations, and association management. But that is behind me. Now I write romance, a non-fiction book now and then, and children’s books which I illustrate with my own photos and graphics. Since I am a stickler for accuracy, I do many hours of research into the places and times of my fictional characters. They are flawed people, oftentimes challenged by difficult circumstances in their lives. Redemption and forgiveness are recurring themes in my novels. I hope you’ll come along to enjoy the twists and turns in the lives of my characters as they find their way.
