• I’m a native Nevadan, born in fabulous Las Vegas, but raised in colorful Colorado. I’ve loved stories since I was a little girl, listening to my mom read the Pooh Bear books to me, and from the age of 6, writing my own construction paper-covered volumes. I always especially loved classics, and I’ve often wondered if I was born in the wrong century. Whether sailing with pirates or singing Christmas carols by a roaring fire, I delight in historical ambience. I particularly love creaky ships, flowery wallpaper, and musty libraries. Therefore, I revel in writing historical fiction featuring that authentic, old-fashioned flavor, and seek to acknowledge life’s trials, while emphasizing its beauty. When not writing, I can be found singing, acting out my stories with stuffed animals and American Girl dolls, devouring battered books, enjoying Disney movies, talking till 3 a.m. with friends, or scorekeeping at Colorado Rockies baseball games.
