I was born in 1957, the third of six kids making up the family, which puts my Borg designation as "Three of Six," for Star Trek fans.
I grew up, went to college, dropped out, went back, dropped out, worked as a secretary for three years, went back to college, dropped out, went back and finally finished a degree in nursing. Got married at 25, and kicked him to the curb 14 years later. Lived in my native Mississippi until my divorce was final, then moved to New Mexico. After two years there, I moved to Colorado. Two years there and the birth of my only child -- a wonderful son named Thomas -- brought me back home to Mississippi, where I remain to this day.
I gave up my nursing career to become a teacher. Retired for health reasons in 2015 and took up freelance writing. That proved a successful venture, and it stoked a long-dormant fire in my soul for fiction writing. I published my first novel in 2021 and have relaunched it with a new cover and a shiny new edit in August 2023.
I continue to live in the backwoods of Mississippi with my family scattered around and my three fur-babies (Snowball, Radar, and Krumpus) interrupting my writing time on a regular basis.
