I loved words. In 2015 I decided to put the stories I had dancing through my mind into my computer where I could read them whenever I wanted. I now have over 85 stories of varying lengths - mostly novels. My husband urged me to get them published - even told me it was on his bucket list. The Wild Rose Press was my choice to put those first stories into book form. The Sweetwater series of 8 stories put into 4 books will be out soon (2019). I also sent a few stories in to other publishers and have a contract on Montana Lineman with Literary Wanderlust out by end of 2020.
I write historical romance - Medieval, Highland, Georgian, Regency and my favorite Western US. The women were strong and met the challenges of life on the frontier while the men were tenacious workers and fighters whether to break ground for a homestead or be the peacekeepers. I admire the stamina both had to have to make a life and brave a new beginning. I found that same strengths in all those who went before us and make way for what we have become today.
I often am found working with my muses acting as stenographer to get their stories told. My husband came home one evening and asked, "You still with your invisible friends? People will think you're crazy." I answered, "Will they think me crazy for having invisible friends or you crazy for being jealous of them?" Now he asks what my "friends" are telling me.
I have to remind him that he is still my hero and even after 50 years together can still take my breath away.view less
