After a short stint at life in big cities, my husband and I purchased my Great-Grandfather’s house and moved to Nebraska, where I grew up. I have four kids, three grand kids, two dogs, and two cats, and I work at a landfill. I have always loved writing though I didn’t seriously enjoy my craft until my kids got older. It was then that I traded my diaper changing, late night feeding time for my writing time and I’ve been writing ever since! Whether I’m writing historically, contemporarily, or humorously, my work centers on life in small Midwestern towns and the amazing bonds people form with their neighbors.
