Welcome! I live on the coast of Maine with my husband, two sons, and my dog.
I come from a family of teachers, writers, artists, and musicians, so it wasn't a surprise when I became a teacher. The surprise came when I turned forty and suddenly I had a story that I HAD to write. Something came over me that fall and I dared to take a risk on a dream. It felt right as soon as I met my first character, even though she'll probably never see the light of day!
