A Storyteller
at Heart
Nestled on Camano Island in Washington State, I share my life with my husband and our two golden retrievers — my loyal writing assistants. As a mother of three and proud grandma of three amazing grandkids, family is at the heart of everything I write.
In fact, they helped shape the characters in my middle grade fantasy trilogy, which began as bedtime stories and blossomed into The Carnelian Game — a magical adventure that spans the globe.
