Writing for children and young adults has been a rewarding and "fun" experience. Young people have been helping me stay "young" for many years! in addition, writing for adults is also quite satisfying. I am pleased that all my books have been well received by schools, libraries and bookstores.

I enjoy the world of "children", and the age group 8-l4 has been a familiar teaching assignment. The JEANNIE, A TEXAS FRONTIER GIRL series (Books One,Two,Three, and Four are published, and  are based on family historical fact. The setting is in the Eastland/Ranger, Texas, area (60 miles from Abilene, Texas). I enjoy traveling the USA and especially treasure our American heritage and our history.  My goal in writing for children, teens, and adults is to follow a theme with a message that will entertain, inform, inspire, and enrich the reading experience. 



Birth Place: Gatesville, TX USA

Accomplishments: I am a former teacher/counselor. My articles and stories have been published many times in periodicals for children and adults in both secular and religious publications. I hold General Elementary, General Secondary, Pupil Personnel and also School Psychologist life credentials in the state of California.
