“Pass the popcorn and settle in for a terrific time with this seamlessly crafted blend of historical fiction and old-school suspense…”

Happy 2024!! Wrapping up an intense whirlwind of a year, with many ups and downs. On the professional side, I published two books after a seven year intermission, wrote another adventure with Jenn as well as a solo proposal, planned out the beginnings of a new venture I’m really excited about, and graduated my masters program after four years on and off through Covid.

I recently had a wonderful and absolutely surreal day where I journeyed back to my alma mater, Merion Mercy Academy, to give a Mercy in Action talk about my legal and publishing journey with the school's current student body.

I'm so thrilled to see my genre-blending thriller on some "most anticipated" reading lists for the fall! Check out these featured reviews, interviews, and some guest articles as part of this press roundup for With Regrets.

With Regrets is going on tour! I’ve got several events this fall, in person and virtual, and hope you can join the fun!

Jenn and I were so thrilled to see The Antiquity Affair featured on BookBub's roundups for best new historical mysteries; mysteries featuring female sleuths; and new books about archaeology.

I’ve been waiting to share the exciting news: I’ve got another novel coming this fall, my “Real Housewives of the Apocalypse” thriller!!

I (finally!!!) graduated from my masters program at Vermont College of Fine Arts – with an MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults.

Authors of speculative short stories manage to present fully lived-in worlds while still delivering satisfying narratives and character complexity. How do they do it all in the span of several thousand words?

Bringing a character to life in any work of fiction is a difficult task, but the charge is even more challenging in short fiction, where the author has far fewer scenes and pages to make their characters feel alive. Here, I share some takeaways I gleaned from reading short stories with memorable characters.
