    • My son got a pink sewing machine for Christmas when he was about 4 because he saw my machine and thought it was cool. My father got it as a joke, but my son was humiliated by the pink color and wouldn’t even look at it. I never told him anything about colors but he picked it up by the culture 🙂

About
My aim is to keep you turning pages well past bedtime with historical family sagas. Complex characters are my thing. I want to draw you into the lives of people you will love, hate and cry over. My goal is for history to come alive for you whether it be in a Civil War field hospital, an experimental Utopian society or in the dark-paneled rooms of Gilded Age socialites. If you like Gone with the Wind, Cold Mountain and Age of Innocence you may enjoy The Tenafly Road Series.
When not writing novels, you can find me knee-deep in farm muck.
