Author, Shopkeeper, and Dog Whisperer. My book "The Unfaithful Widow" essays on my first year alone doing all those things I never thought I'd do again came in as a finalist in the 2011 Best Books awards in the women's issues category. I opened a vintage shop a year ago which also hosts a writers guild, book club, critique group and writing classes by local authors. I also sell lovely vintage clothes and antiques! I am a member of the blogging tean for Lifetime TVs online site for its morning show "The Balancing Act". I live with five hooligan rescue dogs. I have been promoting authors at my shop and now have a blog where I will be featuring authors and their books.
