Despite a background in technical writing, I love writing fiction about strong women. My most recent book, A New York Lady In Helldorado, received excellent reviews from Kirkus and the Historical Fiction Co. and was a finalist in the 2023 American Writing Awards. I am a second-generation Arizonan and a history enthusiast. My history teacher dad quizzed us at the breakfast table. I am a member of the Historical Novel Society, the Arizona Authors Association, and the Arizona Territorial Society. I love to travel and am fortunate to have visited much of this beautiful country and the world. I publish a travel blog at: https://wanderinwalkers.wordpress.com/
