Author of 14 novels from thrillers and horror to sci-fi and fantasy. When I’m not writing I’m training for triathlons, gardening and eating. Gosh I love food so much. Just feed me and I’m yours.

AMAZING REVIEW! “The Hunt for Xanadu is a remarkable novel, a fascinating & fantastical journey in time and space, and one of the most gripping novels I've read in a long time.”

I’ve noticed something odd at my book fair events. There’s always someone who picks up one of my books, flips to the back pages, reads the last page or two, smiles at me, puts the book down & walks away. Why? This happens every single book event. Thoughts?

Whenever I go to a book fair, I never quite know exactly which of my novels is going to resonate with readers. These were the top three this past weekend! NOWHERE TO RUN (supernatural thriller), THE MANNEQUINS (horror) and THE HUNT FOR XANADU (supernatural thriller). #bookfair

Love to connect with some runners on here! Anybody training for a 10k or an upcoming race?

Any swimmers on here? You know what’s weird? When I swim, I’m supposed to do warm-up laps but my warm up laps are really the same speed as my regular laps, so why am I even warming up? Lol #swimming

Last night I was in a pizzeria & they had music playing that my Shazam couldn’t pick up. I ran upfront & asked them what music it was: Pandora 90s grunge. I pieced together some of the lyrics and looked it up on Google & guess what? It’s The Garden by Pearl Jam! Now on my running playlist. #running

I feel like it’s so important to “work your plan” even when you have a busy schedule. I’m up early this morning so that I can do a couple of query letters and research agents before I start my workday.

I had ground beef in the fridge, but no mozzarella or ricotta cheese so I’m “lasagna improvising.” Meat sauce made, cashew cream ricotta is pretty decent & made, the Bechemel sauce is thickening though it seems like it’s taking a long time to thicken. Lasagna for dinner!
