Biography

I love to tell stories of people real and imagined who might otherwise be invisible. I've been lucky to live in many beautiful places and currently live in Piedmont, South Carolina.  "Women of Glass and Steel" is my new historical novel about a 16 year old who believes she faces a life of loneliness because of her immigrant mother, a notorious woman's suffragist. It is set in the real town of Seneca Falls, New York, during World War I.
