A few years ago, we moved to coastal South Carolina when our children went off to college. We love the balmy weather and all the interesting things to do. After many prayers, God blessed us by bringing both of our children to join us upon completing their education. God is good! For a glimpse of my family, visit the photos page.
Now settled in South Carolina, I’ve brought my stories to Charleston. Like my characters, I enjoy gardening. I’m still learning all the different plants that grow in zone 9 as opposed to zone 5 where I knew nearly every leaf in the landscape. (Did you know not even the grass is the same?) I’ve needed a crash course in southern gardens, not only to whip my yard into shape (still working on that) but to write my books.
Besides writing novels, I pen a newspaper column called Time to Enjoy for the Geauga County Maple Leaf. To read the latest column, see http://www.geaugamapleleaf.com/TimeEnjoy/.
In my spare time, along with gardening, I enjoy walking on the beach, swimming, reading, and entertaining visitors. I also love visiting tea rooms and quaint little shops. A collector of teapots, teacups, and pretty old dishes, I adore using them to host tea parties for family and friends. See the Fun page for favorite garden party recipes.
I hope you enjoy the website, and the stories, but most of all, I pray that my characters help you know God’s love and His peace that transcends all understanding.
God’s Blessings to you!
Affectionately,
