Hello! Welcome to my Author News.
As a career, I worked as a copyeditor and contributing editor to The Chicago Manual of Style. I’m also the author of several traditionally published children’s books, fiction and nonfiction, for all ages.
Now I’ve finally found where I’m meant to be: An indie writer and publisher of middle-grade fiction.
My first project surprised me: Maddie’s Ghost was the 2024 winner of the Society of Midland Author’s Award for Children’s Fiction!
Next up (April 2025) is Ellie and Kat: Time-Jinx Twins. Yep. Middle-grade time travel and identical twin sisters.
I’ll be sure to let subscribers know when Ellie and Kat: Time-Jinx Twins is available.
Meanwhile, I hope you’ll check out my middle-grade mystery Maddie’s Ghost, for ages 8-12, hardcover, paperback, ebook, or audiobook.
Winner of the 2024 Midland Authors Award for Children’s Fiction.
