Author Bio

I've been at this writing gig for a long time. 129 published books can attest to that. I've been told that my books are deeply emotional and psychologically compelling looks at life. To me, they're just the way I co-exist with the voices in my head. I've appeared often on local and national TV including CBS Sunday Morning, and frequently fill guest speaker slots. I enjoy getting out and traveling, and I'm also very happy sitting alone for days at my computer living all kinds of different lives. I was honored to win the Reader's Choice Award and to final multiple times for the RWA RITA award.

I live life from my heart. I'm a wife, a mother, a survivor, an in-line skater, and a supporter of The National Domestic Violence Hotline. I am also a secret dog whisperer.
