I'm a Montana native and still live in this wonderful place with my husband, two children, two boxers, three cats, and a fish. Update- The fish died, so my daughter now has two Fire Bellied Toads.

I wrote my first novel, SHADOWS IN THE FIRE, in 2000. It was published by Treble Heart Books in March 2002. FULL MOON INHERITANCE, my second novel, just came out in July 2003. It's the beginning of what I hope is to become a series. You can check out both novels at Treble Heart Books.

Before I began my novel writing career, I was an artist. My love for art has led me to graphic art on the computer, which in turn led me to cover art. I still take out the oils now and then because I love the smell of fresh paint.

Look for my poem, Burnt Pumpkins, and my essay, Spaces In Time in Crumbs In The Keyboard. Crumbs is a wonderful collection of story's written by women who write and deal with everyday life. The proceeds of this project will be donated to help fight domestic violence. I'd also like to send a special congratulations to all of my RWU Buddies who are also be in Crumbs!

Another essay has been accepted to be included in a collection of stories called, Let Us Not Forget: A Tribute to America's 20th Century Veterans. This anthology will be filled with stories honoring American Veterans, stories that need to be told, to be read, to be remembered and not forgotten. ALL proceeds will go to the America's 20th Century Veterans Memorial Fund, for the completion of the memorial located in North Platte, Nebraska. The anthology will be published through iUniverse, with a release date for Fall 2002.
