Hello! I'm a lifelong resident of Atlanta, GA, USA. I'm a writer and illustrator, doll maker, skater and skating teacher, nursing home art teacher, grain growing enthusiast and founder/director of Joy Community Kitchen, Inc., a 501(c)3 non-profit food charity. I'm the author of eight books. Four are stories set in the imaginary world of frendibles, two are cozy mysteries, and two are non-fiction "how-to" manuals, one covering doll making and the other, roller skating!
