About the Author
So glad you stopped by my site!

My background is in teaching, and children’s ministry.  I decided to celebrate my fifties by returning to an old flame – writing!  My other published children’s stories can be found in various children’s magazines and Sunday School Take Home papers, including Pockets, Discoveries, Shine Brightly, Sparkle, One Way Street News and Clubhouse Jr.  I also have numerous fiction and non-fiction pieces published in Standard, Evangel, Live, Vision, Devotions Quarterly,The Quiet Hour, and Mature Years.
When I’m not writing or in the classroom, my neighbors all know me as “that lady who walks around the block all the time.” That’s me alright, but my husband and I prefer long walks in the park, and whooshing around the parks and golf courses on cross country ski’s.
Sometimes we get really crazy.  We BOOGIE!  Oh yes, the “oldies” station will get us hopping all over the place.  Please keep all of this quiet.  We are of a certain age, having left our forties behind in a cloud of dust.
We have ten adorable grandchildren. They do not need to know that their Nana and Papa put up the ping-pong table and behave like this.  Anyway, when we are completely exhausted and walking around like sweaty rag dolls, we trot back upstairs and act like regular people.
I have a perpetual sore neck, and a heart that beats for kids!
