My newest work of fiction: The Light Behind the Door. This engrossing and life-affirming modern fantasy will appeal to adults and young adults alike.
Look also for the Maggie Dunn trilogy: Summer's Lie, When Bodies Fall and The Reason for Time. Each book stands alone, and each also continues the story of Maggie Dunn, a middle-aged woman who has become thirty years younger. These cozy literary mysteries are a must-read!
I am a retired professor of education and a former school teacher. I have always loved to write: poetry, songs, research articles, academic books, and fiction.
I have a wonderful husband, two big dogs (also wonderful), a beautiful daughter and six incredible grandchildren. I love to hike, walk and run. And read!
In academic books, qualitative social science researchers will find Qualitative Research and Intercultural Understanding, and A Brief History of Knowledge for Social Science Researchers practical, accessible and highly readable. Now available from Routledge: Insider-Outsider Research in Qualitative Inquiry: New Perspectives on Method and Meaning (with Randa Khair Abbas).
I am hoping to 'meet' Goodreads readers through your questions, comments and reviews.
