I grew up in northern Michigan. I reside in northern Indiana, with my husband, our rescued shelter dog, a beautiful kitty that the dog brought home one day, and 10 backyard birds. (both the dog and the kitty will also be included in books someday, but in the first book, just the kitty makes a cameo appearance)

I am very excited to create children's books, using the adventures of my own back yard. Animals and nature give me a lot of pleasure and giggles, and something happens often that makes me think, 'Gee, that would make a cute story!'

If I just make books to give as gifts to my family and friends, then I am happy.

I look forward to creating more stories as my back yard inspires me.
