Who am I
I'm a writer, blogger, and advocate who writes Adult/YA genres with multicultural characters on both sides of the law. Looking for an agent to foster me :)
I'm an almost empty nester filling the space with writing, arts, social justice issues, travel, red wine and dark chocolate.
For 28 years I lived the hard nosed life of a State of California Department of Corrections employee working within a prison. I had a heck of a ride and a great career, while raising three kids as a single parent.
I've been writing for five years, taken a few workshops, and belong to an awesome, close knit writing and critique group. I dabble in poetry.
My site, blog, or Twitter handle are
Books I've written, anthologies I've contributed to and any scripts or plays I've authored
My novel, Strong Women Grow Here, is a Young Adult fiction about a 17-year-old mother serving a prison sentence for the death of her boyfriend.
