about this author

I live in North Carolina, where time moves more slowly than it did in New York. That means my day can include writing, working with new writers, yoga, and hanging OUT with my sweet teacher, Mother Nature.

I have two grown children, both teachers. They are, deliciously and, to me always surprisingly, among my two best friends on the planet.

I'm a teacher as well as an author, serving proudly on the faculty at Vermont College of Fine Arts in the MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults Program, and at Meredith College, where I teach in the summer writing workshop, Focusing on Form.

1064546 Keep foisting, Stephanie :-) And I can't imagine a friend with better reading taste -- The Witch of Blackbird Pond is one of my all-time favorites!





1697920 You are so welcome. I bought a copy as soon as I got my next paycheck and since then have been foisting it on as many people as I think would appreciate it. So far all good reviews back. ^_^ Thank you for your friend request; it took me a moment to figure out that an actual author was trying to get in touch with me. lol.


1064546 Thanks so much! It means a lot when a reader takes the time to get in touch with an author. And good luck with your own writing -- poems are the best way I know to get inside your own feelings and give them as a gift to others. Keep feeling them!


924018 I read "Black Pearls: A Faerie Strand" a few days ago! I really like them! I hope my public library has more of your books.
