Welcome!
Curious about how you ended up “in Brakenville”? Well, let me roll out the welcome mat and give you the grand tour. I promise, it’s more fun than an orientation pamphlet (and there’s a dog involved).
Why I Write
Ever wondered what inspires someone to write both mysteries and children’s books? Spoiler: It’s not just caffeine (though it helps). Here’s what keeps me typing away amidst the controlled chaos of life.
Why I Sign
American Sign Language might seem like a cool second language, but really it’s my secret weapon. Find out why I sign and how it sneaks its way into everything I do (yes, even in my mysteries!).
