Hey!  Welcome to my website.

     Thanks for taking the time to visit. I am a writer who has Southern skin with a  Northern spin. My first book, HUGS FROM HEAVEN: PORTRAITS OF A WOMAN'S FAITH, was published in 2000. Before that, I wrote a weekly newspaper column for 17 years, and have been published in WOMAN'S DAY and other magazines along the way.

     My second book, a collaborative non-fiction titled, MAN FROM MACEDONIA- MY LIFE OF SERVICE, STRUGGLE, FAITH AND HOPE, was released in February 2010.

     Enjoy your stay as you click around this site. Please feel free to drop me a line (see 'Contact' tab).  I love hearing from folks and I do my best to answer all correspondence, so pull up a comfy chair, grab a cup of tea and type away.  I'd love to hear from you. 

Blessings…
