Me
I was a reader before I was a writer, devouring everything I could get my hands on, including the backs of cereal boxes and the instructions booklet for building the Barbie dream house. Later, my obsession with reading evolved into an absolute need to write. After college, I wrote for national trade magazines, taught writing to college freshmen, and eventually found the guts to try fiction.
I love late bloomers. Most of my novels center on women finding their true selves. Digging In and All The Good Parts were called "Middle Age, Coming-of-Age books" by my editor. I love that description! The Other Family focuses on the similar issues--it's coming to you in April of 2020.
Home Front Girls, my novel cowritten with Suzanne Hayes, debuted from Harlequin Mira in June 2013 and was re-released in September, 2019. Our second book, Empire Girls, hit the shelves in 2014.
My solo work includes The Witch Collector, Parts I & II, paranormal thrillers for HarperTeen. I love all things witchy--Stevie Nicks is my gal!
I can't live without green tea and dark chocolate. When I'm not writing, I'm knitting, baking, and doing all kinds of things my high school self would have found hilarious. I live with my wonderfully blended, Brady-Bunch family in the Chicago area.
