A little bit about me...

1-23-22.jpg

When I was little, I dreamed of having a pet skunk. My dream came true in my late teens when I found a real live skunk in a pet store, named him Skunkly, and brought him home to meet my pet iguana, hamster, gerbil, parakeet, cat, and dog. 

​

I now live with one adorable scruffy pup. Just one. The wild animals that saunter or fly past my porch are not pets, but they are fun to watch and listen to as I write.

​

I have quite a few picture-book stories in my collection now and am working on two middle-grade novels set in Florida. The ideas for most of my stories are stimulated by the wild and wonderful children and many animals that I have known through the years.
