For over twenty years, I’ve built a career in writing—publishing across genres, navigating the industry as both a traditionally and independently published author, and continuing to evolve with every book.
Along the way, I’ve taught workshops and classes for writers around the world, earned my MFA in Creative Writing, and worked with undergraduate students as a creative writing instructor. I’ve seen the writing life from every angle: the excitement, the uncertainty, the setbacks—and the breakthroughs.
If you’re on your own writing journey, you don’t have to figure it all out alone. I share practical advice, behind-the-scenes insights, and real strategies for building a sustainable writing career.
I also offer one-on-one coaching for writers looking for personalized guidance—see below for details. In addition, I’m available for speaking engagements, workshops, and events, including writers’ groups, libraries, and conferences.
Follow along on social media, where I share tips, encouragement, and a look inside the day-to-day life of a working author.
