Click on my Sister-sharing tab to read my blog where I give updates on TESSA AND CLAUDINE, my novel in progress. In the book, Tessa longs to bond with her sister Claudine; however Eva Mae, their rudderless, alcoholic mother is intent on driving a wedge between them. The sisters drift apart. It takes a terrible tragedy before they reconnect. I grew up with one older sister, who died in a car accident several years ago. Perhaps, that triggered my novel about sisters and why I put Sister-sharing stories on my blog.

You can also read about ECHOES, the newly published poetry book, my granddaughter, Rachel Nelson, and I co-authored. Teachers are using it as a teaching tool in middle school classrooms, and it is going on school library shelves. You can read about ROW AWAY FROM THE ROCKS, my first published novel, short stories, essays, poetry, recipes, see the photo page, and get bio and contact information. Thanks for stopping by. Hope you had a good visit. Any comments? I'd love to hear from you.
