Like you, I’m an avid reader, with a special fondness for mysteries and puzzles, though I enjoy a bit of romance, too.

Life has been good to me, and has handed me some interesting variations.  I’m a high school dropout and a college graduate, a former Marine, and the entire daughter-sister-aunt-wife-mother-grandmother ensemble. Oh, and cousin.  I’m a cousin, too, many times over.

I’m a native Texan, and can’t imagine not being proud of that.  I live in the North Texas metroplex, but far enough out of the city to have some peace and quiet.

Since the author bio is always the most boring page on a site, I’ll chop this off right here and invite you to find me in my stories.  That’s where writers are always most real.
