My Blog:

My character-driven historical fiction grips readers' emotions and surprises them with unexpected twists. In Silk: Caroline's Story, the first installment of The Silk Trilogy, “The social realism of Jane Austen meets the Southern Gothic of Flannery O’Connor.” It's 1899 in the Lowcountry of South Carolina, and Caroline must choose between the town doctor and a good-natured farmer, all the while oblivious to a young sociopath who is not about to let this happen. Full of laughter and heartache—with a sinister thread—the next two generations of the family continue the trilogy in Tapestry: A Lowcountry Rapunzel and Homespun. Other novels are in the works, but I often feel more like blathering about my reading and writing than actually doing it, so I've opened this venue for sharing my thoughts with you—about books already written (by me and by others), those yet to come, and a few about life in general!

Do a little dance for me! Silk: Caroline's Story has been recognized once more with a finalist medallion, this time for the 16th annual National Indie Excellence Awards in the category of Regional Fiction: Southeast. I've been dreaming of a Southern Gothic award (not that I've yet seen one), but close enough... I'll take it!

Here's the link. Hint: Click on the 'R' (for Regional Fiction), scroll slightly, and it'll come right up!:  https://www.indieexcellence.com/16th-annual-finalists
