She and her family moved to the Wisconsin Northwoods when she was thirteen. Living in both locations has given Ann a useful insight as a writer to both city life and country. As years passed, Ann's dream of becoming an actress was not to be. In its place she took the advice of instructors from long past, and put the characters dancing in her head loose on paper.Her knack for writing (along with an active imagination) gained Ann employment consisting of writing newsletters and advertising for several businesses.Forever writing unshared stories, it wasn't until her twins were raised and with children of their own, did Ann finally find time to get truly serious about her stories. With the help of a very dear friend and a few family members, Ann found the courage to share her fictional writings which led to finishing her first novel, Dog Island.Ann completed her second novel, Behind the Green Door ~memoir of a time traveler, and is looking forward to writing its sequel.Ann's own life, filled with happiness and joy, sorrow and hard times, blends the perfect combination used in her novels that readers carry with them long after the last page is turned.You can follow Ann on social media at:•Amazon.com ~ •Facebook ~ •LinkedIn ~ •Website ~ Reviews Are Always Welcomeview less
