Imperfect people. Overwhelming odds. All-sufficient grace.
Currently working on my first Christian Romantic Suspense novel, Captive Witness.
Quotes
“
If you really care about the truth, you will want people to believe it. Say it, then, in a way that makes it as hearable as possible. Words take craftsmanship. You need truthful words. You need kind and gentle words. And you need apt, appropriate, beautiful words.
Tim Keller
“
Humor is the spiciest condiment in the feast of existence. Laugh at your mistakes, but learn from them. Joke over your troubles but gather strength from them. Make a joke of your difficulties, but overcome them.
Lucy Maud Montgomery
“
My story is important not because it is mine, God knows, but because if I tell it anything like right, the chances are you will recognize that in many ways it is also yours.

BIO
Growing up, I compensated for a rather uneventful childhood by immersing myself in the captivating world of books. My love of reading was surpassed only by a passion for writing - journals, anecdotes, songs, stories, and poetry. After receiving a degree in English Language and Literature from Northwest Nazarene University, I devoted the next twenty-odd years to raising (and occasionally homeschooling) my four children...scratching the writing itch with periodic blogging...dreaming all the while of the imaginary stories I would someday bring to life.
Finding myself with an almost-empty nest, I am currently pursuing my goal of becoming a published author. My love of romantic suspense (the by-product of a childhood affinity for the adventurous Nancy Drew and the romantically-inclined Anne of Green Gables) has inspired me to pen my first novel in that genre.
I currently reside in the beautiful Pacific Northwest with my husband, my youngest son, and my Mini Australian Shepherd, where I spend an inordinate amount of time vacuuming up dog hair, crocheting useless items, and updating my Spotify playlist.
