Passions which inspire my writing include: Black Bic Classic pens, ledger pads, historical places (better if haunted,) the change of seasons, all types of music, movies and live theatre, time spent with my family and friends, impromptu road trips, art, mystical legends and lore, the ocean and the Great Lakes, lighthouses, shipwrecks, fireplaces, and good wine.
Reviewers describe her work as "superbly sensual, powerful, emotional, and character-driven."
