my story

My childhood dream of becoming an author went up in a puff
of smoke when I got to the very first sentence of Chapter Two. I distinctly
remember a sinking feeling that I simply didn’t know enough to write the story.

So, I spent the next few decades exploring, discovering, and
learning. I’ve climbed volcanoes, hiked mountains, swam in bioluminescence at
night. I made a home in Italy, became a mum there, mastered the language, immersed
myself in the culture, and even won a national karate championship.

I later moved to the US where I picked back up my childhood
dream and in 2021 my dream came true when From Ashes to Song was
published!

It's been a joyride ever since. From Ashes to Song
was nominated for the WCoNA Book of the Year. The Things We’ll Never Have
(July 2023) won an Award of Excellence from the Historical Fiction Company and
was a finalist for the 2024 Eric Hoffer Book Award.

I love connecting with you, readers, so I leaped at the
chance to launch my own online store, removing the middleman and offering readers
unique purchasing options, including autographed books.

However you discovered my books and wherever you purchase
them, I hope you enjoy being transported to a different time and place. May the
journey add a dash of joy and inspiration to your life!

Happy reading!
