I
was born and raised in San Diego, California. As soon as I learned to
read, I knew I wanted to be a “bookmaker” and I wrote my first
story, “Judy and the Fairies,” with a plot device stolen from a
comic book, at the age of six. I retired as a fiction librarian for the
San Diego Public Library in order to spend more time on my writing.
My stories, in every length from short shorts to novellas, have been
published in numerous journals, including Eclectica, Thema
Literary Journal, Nebo,
and most recently Willow
Review. Reluctant
Hearts is my sixth book from
the Wild Rose Press, and a suspense novella, The
Axe, will be released in September.
Although I also enjoy reading biography, memoir, and history, fiction
remains my first love. In addition to the three R’s—reading,
writing, and research—I enjoy Scrabble, movies, and travel.
