I started writing stories and poetry as a child and managed to complete over 100 handwritten pages of a novel. That was some endeavor for an 11-year old!

I've been writing off and on since the early 1980's in various capacities. I have completed a multitude of technical documents related to the software development industry, written articles for various local newsletters, written content for websites, and edited, written, and produced my own newsletters.

I find time to do some creative writing as well. I have had several short stories, poems, and articles published in print and online.

I work as a writing teacher and coach online and am developing new writing classes for Pearls of Writing. My nonfiction book, THE MAGIC & THE MUNDANE: A GUIDE FOR THE WRITER'S JOURNEY is now available in print from lulu.com (published by ePress Online).

I have a BS degree in Early Childhood Education and a Masters Degree in Special Education (specializing in Learning Disabilities). After having worked in the public school system for several years, I realized I loved to work with the children, but I did not agree with much of what the public shool system is all about. I love to teach and to help people to learn new things but I just did not fit into the public school system.

I then moved into the computer field where I have 20 years experience programming, analyzing, writing, training, and testing. Along with each task, I have not been shy about letting others know of my love for writing. Most managers have gladly given me more than my share of the project writing to perform. I love this part of my work!

I'm currently engaged in full time employment while pursuing contract work as a freelance writer, editor, and writing coach. I work as an mentor for Writers Village University (WVU) and teach writing classes at Pearls of Writing. I'm a lead editor for ePress Online, and also senior editor and Director of Submissions for Virtual Tales.

The Magic & the Mundane: A Guide for the Writer's Journey,
is now available.
