About me

Gender Female
Occupation writer
Location San Antonio, United States
Introduction I write historical fiction that blends history and archaeology with the mysteries of time and time travel. I believe all books are magic you can hold in your hands, and I love creating worlds where we leave behind the ordinary and are transported by reading to another time and place. My recently completed novel, Spiral, begins the story of two women bound together across time by identical mitochondrial DNA--a clairvoyant Druid of the 5th Century BC and her descendant in 2006 AD, an archeologist of Celtic history. Spiral will be available on Amazon.com, February 2014
Interests Reading, writing, researching history, studying archaeology, going on archaeological digs, painting, and growing herbs and coaxing my tomatoes to grow and ignore our searing heat.
