I have a fondness for the beach, my family and good books. I love to read (especially curled up with a good cup of coffee). I also like to travel, ride my bike, walk and go to the movies. When I’m not doing these things, I can be found in my little loft office, writing!
Growing up, I always had my face in a book, and at a pretty young age discovered that I also liked to write. At first I wrote romances that paired me and my friends up with certain pop stars from the 1980s.

In college I decided to get a degree in Creative Writing and many years later finally sat down and wrote my first novel for teens. I love to write stories about family, finding your voice, faith, friends and falling in love.
Somewhere along the line I married a Cubs fan/math genius/funny guy and had two super
cool daughters. We live in the Houston area with a half-
First day of 5th grade.
Some of my fave readers.
That’s Spencer.
