An avid reader from a very early age, I found equal enjoyment in writing. My first works included short stories, poetry, and articles before venturing into the world of blogging and then fiction and non-fiction books.

I draw my writing from my many interests. I might be found watching a Star Trek movie (for the sixteenth time!) while creating new healthy vegan recipes. Although I truly love life on their family organic farm, I also enjoy venturing into town for the occasional Japanese dinner or bowling with family night. My reading varies from a variety of non-fiction to favorite fiction genres such as sci-fi, eco-fiction, science fantasy, hopepunk, dystopian, and historical fiction.

Family and my beloved pets are most cherished to me. I also have a deep passion for helping others and find that often the best help is to just be a good listener.

I live in Christmas, Florida with my beloved husband of 42 years, four of our nine children and our family pets.

How could you write so many books?

Yes, I get asked that a lot. And the truth is, I didn’t write everything just in the year I published. 

I homeschooled our 9 children over the course of many years. During that time, the title of Mom was my focus. I wanted to write. I had so many ideas for books. But my focus was always on my family, as it needed to be. No regrets. I truly enjoyed those years.

But I did write notes, small story segments, and even chapters during those years as time allowed. And over the course of a couple of decades, I accumulated more than one book. In fact, I discovered I had a treasure trove of over 100 books! Some of these were for children, some for older teens and adults.

I had several websites during that time. But one day, I decided to set them aside for a while and begin assembling the books.

In fairness, I have a small team of VA assistants. They design illustrations for the children’s books, book covers, and even manage the formatting and publishing cycle. They also help with the social media side of things. That gives me time to follow my passions with writing.

So, if you see me with a new series of 7 books, all published within a two month timeline, please know that yes, I do sleep. These books represent over 20 years of my notes and writings. And a team that ensures this is all possible!
