Phew! Well, I did it. I finished my book. It's been under construction for five years, maybe more, maybe less. The truth is, I've lost track, but what's important is that I've completed it. It took a book doula to help me (she knows who she is and I'd be happy to put her name here if she agrees)**, faith in myself, my writing skills, and faith in the story itself, as well as a lot of self-discipline and perseverance.


Whoa, wait. I'm being rude...I didn't even say hello and welcome. So...

Hello and welcome to my website! I'm creating this website in hopes that I will get published and readers will become so enamored with my stories that they can't help but look me up ; )  If you're here for that reason then YAY, it worked!! If you just happened to land here then YAY, that's great, too!!

Either way, grab a cup of coffee and make yourself comfortable. The working title of my book is An Education in Informality, and here is a synopsis:   
                                                                    
                                                                Andi has led a sheltered life but it is time to break out.

                                                                     A soon to be forty single mom, Andi Mattison is 
                                                                     starting life over and her first step is to go back 
                                                                     to college. Having recently walked away from a controlling 
                                                                     and abusive husband, Andi welcomes the chance to think for 
                                                                     herself. Her Liberal Arts education has Andi examining her life, 
                                                                     her ideas, questioning her future, her religion, and her sexuality. 
                                                                     However, when she falls for her lesbian professor, her education 
                                                                     becomes anything but academic.

                                                                     Britt Avery has just turned fifty and has never been lucky in love.  
                                                                     She left her husband. Her first female love left her, and she hasn't 
                                                                     had a lasting or serious relationship since. Those factors alone are 
                                                                     enough to deter her from a relationship. But add the fact that her new 
                                                                     interest is one of her students, ten years her junior, and Britt Avery, professor 
                                                                     of English, begins writing an intricate and complex narrative.
