I read.  I write.  I drink wine. 

I write twisty dark suspense and light amateur sleuth stories, most of which I'm happy to say have won various writing awards (thanks again to all the judges!). Other writerly gigs are contributing editor for the International Thriller Writers' The Big Thrill, and coordinating (that means all the behind the scenes work) the prestigious Daphne du Maurier contest. 

When not writing, I battle the beavers over the pond height or heads out on another travel adventure. I lives in Washington with my husband, children, several dogs and the resident deer herd.
