About Me

I seek out the grace in people and events and let that shine through in my stories, poems and novels.


I’ve always used creative writing to explore the conflicts, passions, and questions of everyday life but also feel baking a loaf of bread is as gratifying as crafting a well told story. To me, gardening is a moving meditation, and reading is a way not only to inform myself about the world, but to step inside other worlds. Most of my poems, short stories, and novels reflect my love of fantasy, yet I read everything from literary novels to popular bestsellers. A college friend once told me that in my final moments my life would flash before me - in print!


I get up very early most mornings because it’s a magical time to write. Hoping to counteract the hours of sitting at my computer dissecting sentences and plot-points, I exercise 6 days a week with strength training, yoga, barre, cardio, and just plain long walks.
