Short Bio:
                
                    A former Product Manager and small business owner,  I now care for my 9-year old son (who has Spina Bifida) and write. I also have a 15-year old autistic,  mentally impaired son who is enrolled in a residential school in Virginia.  My degree is in Comp. Sci.,  but that was a long time ago.
I started writing fiction at the age of nine,  when a class at the West LA Parks Department seemed more fun than doing nothing all summer.  I live in the eastern panhandle of West Virginia. 
I've completed four novels in the YA paranormal fantasy genre,  but I have plans to write many more.  My current work is a trilogy,  the Queen of the Night series,  about ancient magic in a modern,  rural community.  
SEEING MAGIC was a first-round winner in the 2013 Amazon Breakthrough Novel Awards contest.
HEALING HANDS,  was a 2012 NanoWriMo winner.
SAVING DAYLIGHT is my current work-in-progress.
