For over a decade, I have made a living as a teacher. I teach middle and high school English and Spanish classes, and I teach online college classes as well.

Review: Reforming Lord Neil
I love when I read a book in which the characters, both good and bad, get what’s coming to them. Reforming Lord Neil by Sally Britton is a heart-warming regency novel, which left me feeling comfortably sated in my desire for a happy ending. Not only did the novel tie up each of its stringsContinue reading “Review: Reforming Lord Neil”
Feasting on Knowledge
It happened, folks. I (virtually) attended my first writing conference. Don’t panic. I have read, researched, and studied voraciously over the last couple years to hone my craft.

(Feels weird saying the same word in one sentence, but it’s what is happening. I have a vision for my story andContinue reading “Give the People What they Want(?)”
Nice to Meet You: Why I Write
Well, you found me. I knew this could happen when I put this out here in the world. I am primarily a wife, mother (of three), teacher, and procrastinator, but I have decided to add author to that list. That is a decision I haven’t come to lightly. It started as a whisper in theContinue reading “Nice to Meet You: Why I Write”
