Who am I
I am looking to connect with writers who believe that part of reading a novel or nonfiction is the artistry of words, shaping them into vivid pictures. There is a Southern flavor to my writing because I have lived in New Orleans my whole life. But my writing is more than that it is about being a woman, wife, mother, teacher, coming of age at an age when I should know better. I love the Dave Matthews band, listen to the Rolling Stones when I cross the Pontchartrain Causeway, love David Sedaris(in a manner of speaking--never met the guy) and Harper Lee, Truman Capote. Loved to look at Paul Newman movies and The Coen Brothers movies--The Big Liebowski, one of my favorites. I grew up with old people basically in a matriarchy and--I love football and I'm a grandmother.
Books I've written, anthologies I've contributed to and any scripts or plays I've authored
I have completed a memoir and currently I am writing a novel.
My professional associations
I have recently attended the Words & Music Festival in New Orleans. It was a wonderful experience. I learned so much! There were so many personable, published authors who were willing to give of their time. Agents and editors were extremely helpful and supportive.
I have attended 2 meetings of SOLA( THE SOUTHERN LOUISIANA CHAPTER OF ROMANCE WRITERS OF AMERICA). I plan on joining in December.
Services I offer to other writers
N/A but I can always listen.
I'm part of these writers' groups or salons
Southeastern Chapter of Romance Writers of America. I am not a mystery writer and technically I my writing does not belong in the romance subgenre--but the chapter helps ALL writers to become published authors. AND the local chapter is a group of wonderfully talented and supportive people!
