Author ◊ Educator ◊ Speaker

When I was a kid, I wanted nothing more than to become a writer. I envisioned myself in the cozy, private nook of my stone cottage working beneath a window that looked out on an English garden where I carefully labored over each word of my soon-to-be-released best selling children’s picture book.

Skip to the present.

There is no stone cottage (we own new construction). There is no English garden (I have a black thumb). There are no picture books (though there are children). There is no private corner (see children). BUT, there are books. Wonderful non-fiction books that have given me the opportunity to be both teacher and student; which, if we are really fortunate, is what the best experiences always do.

I am so grateful that I am an author. There is nothing I wanted more when I was a kid; there is nothing I want more now. And because I am a mother who wants her children to turn their dreams into reality, I thought I should start with myself first.
