About the Author

This is my first novel inspired by a special place in my heart, Powder Point.  Growing up in a small New England town was inspirational in setting the stage of my life. A loving family that taught values and a mother that told wonderful stories, and set a hunger in me to let my imagination flow; the writer in me was born!

As a young child with an innocent mind I was enriched by the world around me, protected by my daydreams, yet free to explore.

While attending Creative Writing classes, Cape Cod writer’s conference and classes on Martha’s Vineyard  called (Writing from The Heart) helped me to define where I wanted to go.

My husband has been tremendously helpful and supportive. We have two children, 5 grandchildren and one more on the way.

I have so many stories to tell, so stay with me on my journey.
