     When I graduated from high school I went straight into the Army reserves.  While in college learning music, I spent weekends driving forklifts and then later, playing piano in the Army National Guard band in West Virginia. ​

      Then I got caught kissing Dale and along came two babies in the baby carriage.  ​

     My babies grew up and graduated and then started making families of their own.

     Now I spend my time writing, reading, teaching piano, visiting schools, learning violin, playing with my dogs and taking pictures.

     My goal is to have at least one book be traditionally published.
