Who am I
I like to tell people that I was born on a jolly bubble. I love humor and all things good. I am a writer, musician, motivational speaker, photographer, and a southerner with mad cooking skills, (because I have been surrounded by amazing southern women all of my life!)
I come from the Smokey Mountains of east Tennessee, where music and storytelling are steeped in rich mountain lore and ancient sounds. The influence in me has been deep, as it has been with much of my family. Legends have been carried over from Ireland and Scotland to settle in those ancient Appalachian mountains, like the mist which still hovers to this day, and they fell upon me aching to find a place in stories, poetry, and music!I have made it my life's dream to write stories that delight, endear, comfort and lift others. I also weave mystery, suspense and drama in each work because that is what life is; a mix of delight, drama, mystery, and suspense. Everyone needs another world to escape into, and that can always be found in a good story.
My site, blog, or Twitter handle are
Books I've written, anthologies I've contributed to and any scripts or plays I've authored
American Dream: Shadows of the Ancient Wood
Rising Hills and Sinking Valleys
(note:I generally write historical fiction and poetry that is mainstream and not linked to any denomination of religion...but I was asked to write this book for a specific market that is LDS. All my other works, such as poetry, are mainstream with a focus on history, children, and life in general)
Services I offer to other writers
I do not offer actual services that I am paid for, but I try and share information about fellow writers on my Twitter and website to help
get the word out about their books.
I found out about She Writes from
The blog page of Heather Greenis, she is a member.
