Welcome to my website.

I am an author living in Hamilton, Ontario who loves kids, reading and writing books.

I won the 2011 "God Uses Ink" contest (age category 40+) and have written for REAL, The Canadian Kids' Magazine.

I have been writing stories for many years. When my kids were in elementary school, I volunteered, assisting teachers in the classroom and helping kids with reading problems. Currently I help with kids' programs at our church and with the Running and Reading program at a local elementary school.

I’ve been married for more than 40 years and have two married daughters and the three best grandchildren in the world.

Children are full of promise and possibility and it is both humbling and exhilarating to live in their world while I write stories about and for them.
