Hello!  I hope to soon publish my first novel.  I've been a writer all my life, but fiction is a new and exciting venture for me.  In addition to writing, I love to travel, eat ethnic food, grow and preserve fruit and veggies, and spend time with my family and friends. The photo to your left shows me with my hubby on a trip to Italy to visit his sister and her family.  You can sign up to get updates about my writing here.
