edit data

I confess, I'm a kidlit lover. I'm also the mother of two and grandmother of four. In addition to my day job, family, friends, book club, hiking, hobbies, and volunteer work, I love to read, and to write for children and teens. My short stories and articles have been published in a variety of magazines and anthologies, and my work has placed in a number of contests, but my greatest joy is writing picture books.

I'm thrilled to announce that my first picture book, The Alphabet Forest, is now available for purchase as both an ebook and a paperback. You can find it at http://www.guardianangelpublishing.com.

Lori Galaske liked Kcoloney's review of Camino Ghosts (Camino Island, #3): "Grisham always makes his opinions -- political, social, legal, etc. -- clear.
