Welcome To My Website!

Nothing pleases me more than sharing my love of reading. The special times I spent reading with my children—cuddled close, delighting in the poetic prose, and discovering secrets in the illustrations—inspired me to write children’s books for other families and children to enjoy.

Feeling blocked? Looking to learn about storycraft? Need some inspiration?

Writing is rarely easy. Even though I’m published I still struggle to get the plot right, to create endearing characters and find the perfect words. If you, too struggle, perhaps it’s time to take a break and learn something new.

Here are some resources to help you on your writing adventures. Don’t forget to check out Writing Picture Books: A Hands-On Guide From Story Creation to Publication!

Wanting more? I send out a monthly newsletter about writing.
