Introduction

I am a published writer with essays and articles appearing nationally in The Christian Science Monitor and in regional publications in Louisiana, where I am originally from, and in North Carolina where I now live.

My first children's book, Patches, the Cow Dog, is currently published on Amazon
and my second, Angelo's Ears, is in the manuscript submission stage. My novella, Liza's World, is also published on Amazon and in Goodreads. (Please see my Books page for more information.) 

Education

I have a Master of Fine Arts in Mass Communications, a Bachelor of Arts in English and have studied Creative Writing at Rice University and with MacArthur Fellow Ernest Gaines at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette.
