I have enjoyed creative writing for as long as I can remember, even

back in grade school! Making up stories about animals or my dolls was

my thing even before I was double-digits old. Writing a children's

book seemed a natural thing to do, especially as my young daughter

grew to love books more and more. Reading countless middle-grade

stories with Allison, combined with watching antics of family guinea

pigs, Maggie and Peanut, became the inspiration for, "A Tale of Two

Guinea Pigs", starring the squeaky, spunky stars, Teddy and Pip.

Teddy and Pip stories are wholesome, funny, chapter books for

approximately third to fifth grade readers. My books are enjoyed by

younger readers too (as read-alouds) and older, too! There is no age

limit! They even make the writer laugh! Consider Teddy and Pip for

your young readers . . . and everyone else you know. I like to think

there is a little something for everyone in this series.

There are now fifteen Teddy and Pip stories and more to come!

My teen novel series, titled Silver Linings (for approximately 12 to

18 year old girls) is now available! Book One: Doors and Windows and

Book Two: Love is Kind. This series is a wholesome read for young

girls about relationships, love, disappointments and, of course,

silver linings . . . with a backdrop of mystery. Follow Lucy, her BFF

Nadine, her dad and many other characters through six months of ups

and downs. The third book in the trilogy is nearly finished, too.

I have lately delved into the world of grown-up stories, too. I wrote

a Christmas-themed novel called Witness - a story about a tight-knit

Minnesota neighborhood and the complicated lives of those who live

there. It is a non-cheesy story about ups and downs and then

redemption. It'll make you laugh and cry, guaranteed. The Reunion was

my first attempt at writing something as an adult. I wrote it way back

in 1991 and then shelved it for many years. Now it is off the shelf

and there is a sequel, too. If you fancy a trip back to the 1990s and

can handle the cringy fashion and decor in addition to a mystery,

check it out! Ebooks are coming very soon for The Reunion, The Return

and Witness.

Thanks for stopping by! Enjoy!
