About Me

People ask why I started writing. What was the "thing" that did it to me, turned on the switch, sent me rushing down this tube like a water slide. Well, I blame the pilgrims. Seriously, when I was in fourth grade, my teacher made us write a short story about the pilgrims for Thanksgiving. Our stories were on display to the entire school. I even illustrated it! I still have it somewhere in its entire tattered splendor, but the effects of writing it are more important. I never got over the experience. Oh, my love for the craft was buried for a time under college days, marriage vows, and child-rearing duties, but it never was forgotten. In the late 1990’s, my husband brought home a computer, set me down in front of it, and told me to quit talking about writing a book, and just do it. The buried desire came floating to the top of my life like fat on a cold soup. I haven’t quit writing since. I love readers and fans, and spend a lot of time on the web meeting and greeting them. I hope you will visit often as I post about my writing journey and about the adventures of Shannon Wallace in my mystery series coming soon from Enspiren Press.
