About Me
-
People say I'm:
-
Describe Yourself:I'm the bestselling author of five novels, Summer Blowout, Life's a Beach, Multiple Choice, Must Love Dogs and Ready to Fall.
After a lifetime of procrastination, and sixteen years as a teacher, I wrote my first novel in my minivan outside my daughter's swim practice at 5 AM. It was published when I was 45, and five years later I walked the Hollywood premiere at the movie version of my second novel, Must Love Dogs.
As George Eliot said, "It's never too late to be what you might have been."
-
On Gather, I'm Looking For ...:To spread the word about my novels and my upcoming Summer Blowout book tour, and also to share what I've learned with all you aspiring writers out there, as well as anybody with a dream!
