Bio
I am retired from over thirty years as an English teacher in the classrooms of independent secondary schools and small private colleges. I retired with a plan to catch up on my New Yorkers and the latest novels by my favorite mystery writers. I was not one of those English teachers who dreams of retiring and writing.
I have never thought of myself as a writer--not enough discipline. My passion was in those classrooms. In Kentucky, I kept bees. In Michigan I had llamas and a sweat lodge. I didn't write about any of that.
In 2014 I got up one morning, sat down with a cup of tea, and started writing. Two hundred + pages later, I had a book. It was published in the summer of 2015. Since then I have published two novels independently and have two complete manuscripts ready for whatever I decide to do with them.
I've had a couple of blogs and I write something every day. I would still be convinced that I'm not a writer were it not for the bothersome fact that I don't seem able to stop writing.,
