About the Author

Shirley began her writing career on an old typewriter on the piano bench when her first daughter started school.  Over the years the typewriter was replaced by a word processor and finally, a computer. A short story course led to the publication of her first stories in Quilt World Magaine.  The course said, 'write what you know.'  And  she did know about quilting!  As her family grew she often said she wrote between the washer and dryer. always putting her family first.
Her published works include short stories, inspirationals. articles, and gradually graduating to novels, which now appear as ebooks on Amazon. Also included in the ebooks is a compilation of her shorter works, including her articles about marquetry. a wood craft she and her husband enjoyed.    The inspiration for writing was there ever since she told stories to her grammar school friends.  Subjects came from her Bible studies, the love of history and personal experience as a nurse, wife, and mother .  Her children are grown now, grandchildren complete her life.   She and her husband live in PA where she continues to write.  She still enjoys quilting and most of all, reading.
