You write a book, you mail it off, you get rejected, you write another book. I did this for six years until, one day I talked my husband into mailing my manuscript for me. I couldn't take one more look of pity from the postal workers. Being the loving husband that he is, Karl mailed Bachlor Party to Hillary Sares at Kensington to be considered for the Precious Gem line on a Tuesday. On Friday of that same week, Hillary called to offer a contract.
Wow! Wouldn't it be great if everything if life was that easy? Publishing can be a rocky road with lots of highs and lows but, oh, what a fun trip! I love writing.
When I'm not writing, I love doing crafts, and I'll try just about anything. At present I'm scrap booking and making necklaces. The necklaces are amature at bestfbut I'm hoping to improve over time. We'll see.
I'm country all the way. I love antiques, embroidered scarves, crocheted doilies and quilts.
I met the love of my life when we were kids, we were married when we were kids even though everyone said it wouldn't last. That was almost 45 years ago and Karl is still my very best friend. We have two fabulous children who married fabulous people who gave us four wonderful grandchildren that we can spoil--then return to the peace and quiet of our home.
