About
If you love drawing from the minute your fingers fasten around a crayon and you love reading stories from the time your brain learns to decipher words, you’re an artist and a reader. If you don’t outgrow the phase adults call Horse Crazy, you’re also a horse person.
I trained horses and taught riders to show them. I created art that told stories, and in my spare time, I read and read and read. Now, stories, horses and art mix together in the books I create.
My story The Fog Lifts won a Highlights fiction contest. It had cows in it, not horses. But when I was little, I'd get excited by cows because they were almost a horse. My book (with horses) was awarded honorable mention for best young adult fiction at Eckerd College's writing conference, and my middle grade novel Heart of the Wood won Florida's Society for Children Book Writers and Illustrator's Rising Kite contest. One of my favorite characters in that book is a tiny winged horse with an attitude.
I invent stories in a seaside Florida town that six generations of my family have called home. In my house, there are two dogs, two once feral cats, one husband and books. Everywhere, there are books.

My writing companions, Django and Teddy. We love dogs with big ears. They're good listeners.
