Welcome to my blog. What do I do in the real world? I write short stories, personal essays, and poetry – some of which become published in literary journals and magazines. Occasionally, I win a contest or two. Occasionally, I’m a judge for a poetry or short story contest.
Recently, I released a collection of short stories called Creek Songs. It joins a book of original poetry and art done in collaboration with artist Lynn Centeno called All Ways A Woman. Both are available on amazon.com
What’s currently underway? I’m working on a revision of a novel with the title The Spence Women.
As a writer in progress, I like learning the craft and seeking the art. As a blogger, I explore writing, life, and stuff we like to ponder. I always feel that writing offers challenge, discovery, inspiration, perspiration, pain, perseverance, a sense of accomplishment … and a feeling of wonder! How about you?!

I have a question about your book I believe I should not post in public. Could you send me an email so I can ask away?
