WELCOME TO MY AUTHOR WEBSITE!
If you love beautifully-written and critically-acclaimed historical fiction based on true events, you've come to the right place! I dreamt all of my life of becoming a novelist. I finally did at age 70 years old! (See BIO.) After struggling for years with kidney failure, then a related heart attack, my husband Evan was able to donate his kidney. He saved my life and my life dream! I hope you enjoy my books. Thank you for stopping by. I'd love to hear from you! You can reach me on my CONTACT page.
