About the author
What I enjoy writing
I enjoy writing anything from articles to poetry to
novels. I love writing for children. Over the last six
years, I have written several picture books and a
middle grade novel. These are waiting to find the
perfect home! I also enjoy writing personal
essays--filled with my opinions and observations of
our wonderful world. Recently, I fell in love with
articles as you can see in the column to the left!

Big Successes
My biggest success so far is the acceptance of my
on-line book by Reading A-Z, titled Operation Color
Change. It is the story of Logan, a boy who loves only
blue. This upsets the color fairies, and they decide to
teach Logan a lesson he'll never forget. They change
EVERYTHING- stoplights, dogs, and baby
sisters-blue! I am also excited to have sold a party
plan, titled "Fall Festival," to Highlights for Children
and a science article to Fun for Kidz.
