Warm greetings from the frosty mountains of Pennsylvania! I have BIG NEWS! Ready?  My YA fantasy (with a dash of science fiction) Gretchen and the Bear will be published May 27, 2020 by the lovely folks at WordCrafts Press! Super bonus excitment--the talented M.S.Corley, who created the covers for The Mermaid's Sister and The Gold-Son, is on board to design the cover for GATB. Here's a sneak peek at the story: Visiting dangerous Faerie-infested Britannia is the last thing sixteen-year-old Gretchen wants to do when she finally trades life on a dreary orbiting station for life on the verdant regenerated Earth. After all, no human who’s dared to visit the Faeries’ land has ever returned.

The Latest... Hi!  I hope you're enjoying summertime! Mine has had its major ups and downs. The good news is my family survived a horrific car crash on the way home from camping on Assateague Island last month. We were hit head-on by a distracted driver. (Please don't text and drive!) Still achy from that (fractured ribs, ugh), but so grateful my husband and kids were only bruised a bit and not killed.  On a more festive note, This happened!      I'm thrilled to have a piece of flash fiction featured in this very pretty magazine. It's about the Dwarf you might think of as Dopey. You can get it on Amazon or here: Splickety June 2018 If you're in Pennsylvania for the Central PA Festival of the Arts, come & see me at BookFest PA , in the authors' tent behind the Schlow Library, on July 14.
