Writing

Like you, I’ve been writing practically my whole life.

Before 2005 my “portfolio” included more school papers, marketing plans and corporate memos than I care to remember, plus love notes, silly notes and scribbles inside too many greeting cards to count. One day in 2005, however, I discovered that I liked to write — that I wanted to write and share my stories. My blog, One-Woman Show, and my first still-unpublished novel have been two of my primary writing outlets, but you can find me other places, too. I hope you’ll check these out and, as always, thanks for reading!
