A native Nebraskan, she retired with her husband to their hometown of Grand Island where they now live with two hunting dogs, surrounded by family and old friends. She was a stay-at-home mom before it was popular and it worked out well giving her time to write four novels published by Avalon Publishers.
Her fifth book, "Letters From Al" is inspired by an old photograph the author was drawn to as a child at her grandmother’s house. It was of her great aunt Sophia, and the image drifted in and out of her life until her aging grandmother gave her the photo. Visions and ideas sprang to life in the story of an unknown flapper and Al Capone, the gangster. That‘s how "Letters From Al," her fifth novel, a romantic mystery was born.
In 2010 she placed second in the NE State Mother's Assn. short story contest, and first in the National Mother’s of America contest. She is a member of the Nebraska Writer’s Guild, Romance Writer’s of America, Prairieland Romance Writer's group and The Grand Island Critiquers. Her hobbies include reading, crafting and enjoying her family which has grown to include grandchildren.
