I reside in what I affectionately refer to as “middle-of-nowhere” Kentucky. Just ask people who live twenty minutes away—they’ve never heard of the town where I live either. We do have a John Deere dealership but little else. That’s okay though—in good weather I can sit by an open window and listen to the music of birds, crickets, and frogs with only an occasional interruption from a passing vehicle.

My debut novel, Secondary Target, released in May 2024 and is a Parable Group bestseller! Pre-publication, it also won the 2019 ACFW Genesis award and placed in the 2019 Daphne du Maurier inspirational category. Book two of The Secrets of Kincaid series is scheduled for a summer 2025 release, so keep an eye out! In the meantime, you can also get my prize-winning flash fiction story “Mansion Murderer” (originally published by Splickety magazine) for free by signing up for my email newsletter.

Outside of fiction writing, I’m an editor and copywriter. And in my spare time (yes, I still have a wee bit of that . . . sometimes), I enjoy reading, gardening, and experimenting in the kitchen. Oh, and did I mention my love for tea? No day is complete without a pot (or two, or ten!) of properly steeped hot tea. Would you like to join me for a cup?
