Est. May 30, 2007
I was born in San Francisco and raised in a small beach community just 10 miles south of SF in 1958. Three of my seven grandchildren have autism (this and the death of my parents has inspired much of my writing). I have been writing secretly for many years as a release and a hobby. I continue to write, but now I feel my writing is something I would like to share. I live in the Napa/Solano Bay Area where I also enjoy singing and have been a member of the same woman's choir for more than 20 years now.
