My Books
My mother was a writer for her hometown newspaper where she shared stories about her friends and community. She left an estate full of newspaper clippings, scrapbooks, and many items that gave me something to write about and share with others.
My book Picket Fences is Volume 1 in An American Family Series and was published in January of 2023. Stevie is the second book in the series and was published in August.
