I’ve been in love with language and under the magic spell of books ever since I can remember; reading and writing are both in my blood. I pecked out my first poems and (100% unfinished) short stories on my dad’s electric typewriter when my feet didn’t yet reach the floor from my seat in his desk chair. I took it for granted that that was where I belonged and was what I would forever continue to do.
And so I have, although the equipment and location have changed. Following several false starts down many unmapped, meandering roads, I did manage to make my way to professional food writing—which was one childhood dream miraculously come true.
Now, I’m thrilled (and immensely grateful) to be able to share my first novel, The Light on Farallon Island, available in paperback, audio, and e-book formats as of June 1, 2023.
Book #2, A Cure for Sorrow, will be released on September 24, 2024.
I can’t wait to find my readers, and cast my own little bit of enchantment in the world.
