I am a Young Adult author who prefers fantasy to real life and in the few free seconds I have between being a mom, wife, and full time day job worker, I write. Always have more ideas than time, but one of these days I might get through them all. In the meantime, I just keep swimming.

An interesting and random fact about me: I’m a native Mainer and I don’t eat seafood. Or meat. I do like blueberries and pick them from my own field every year, though I am deathly afraid of snakes and they seem to know this and stalk me through aforementioned blueberries. (My husband thinks I’m crazy, but I see them watching me, flickering their snaky tongues just waiting for the chance to attack!)

Check back for updates as they happen (Unfortunately, unlike the 6 o’clock news, I don’t have exciting headlines every night) but I do try to blog occasionally and I belong to a great group of YA writers at and you should definitely check them out at YA Highway They are way more entertaining than me anyway and interview some awesome authors over there!
