About Me

My photo
Writing is in my soul. And it always has been. It's something I have to do. Any writer will tell you that we are not given a choice. The words come at us, sometimes like a raging wind storm blowing in off the prairie, sometimes like a gentle rain falling in a meadow. Ignoring them is futile because stories and story ideas are relentless. They've been popping into my head since I was little. Not a day goes by that I don't think about a new story that needs to be written down. I've had a cookbook, a children's book, and two novels published, in addition to being a contributor to 12 Chicken Soup for the Soul books. I've also had more articles published than I can recall. My new novel will be published in August of 2024. Stay tuned here to find out more about it as the publication date draws near.

 Come Join Me at a Special Event


As the pub date for The Wedding Dress Quilt draws near, I've set up several events in central Texas that the public is welcome to attend. I'll be discussing the genesis of the story, reading a chapter from the book, and selling books onsite that I will sign if requested. And you'll be able to see an awfully special treat -- a real quilt made from six wedding dresses. The one in the book was made from one dress, but the quilt you will see is made from six glorious dresses. 

Hope to see some of you at one of the events.
