Bio

I am are retired nurse, hence my proclivity to include death in my work. Not an obsession just a life observation. I have been published in six anthologies by Pure Slush – poetry and prose. I write short stories. Am an avid reader of them and see then as sparkling gems. I read too much and write too little…avoidance?, procrastination?, imposter syndrome?.

I gravitate to coming of age , soft horror and eco genres. I also write poetry and have been working on and (mostly)off a novel for years.

I am endeavoring to mine and map my genealogy – a punishing activity as down the rabbit hole I go.

Writing allows me to explore who I am and why we are.

Genre

General Fiction, Horror, Poetry, Short Stories
