Portrait
Who I Am:
A former librarian turned freelance writer and editor.  An eclectic scholar with degrees in classical studies, drama, library science, and organizational communication. I am committed to the concept of “Everyman Theatre,” bringing Christ’s message to the world via good storytelling, whether it is in the form of novels,  plays, or puppet theatre.  I  share my Mississippi home with my retired parents and an every-changing assortment of adopted stray cats.

You Can Do It!
An Introvert's Guide to Public Speaking

You can successfully learn to stand up in front of any audience and present on any topic, if you put the effort into becoming a public speaker. Speaking publicly is less about talent and more about preparation and technique. The purpose of this book is to help you to understand what you need to become an effective speaker and to give you the tools you need to put it all together for an effective public presentation. Will it take away all your fears and doubts? No one can promise that. But I can promise you will find herein the tools to effectively overcome those fears, those doubts, long enough to successfully present the next time your boss, your organization president, a civic leader, or your pastor looks directly at you and says, “That should be the topic of our next meeting; who wants to volunteer?” And who knows? You might, like this introvert, discover that with enough preparation and practice, you can actually get pretty good at it.

Words To Love By
Sometimes people just connect. That is the way librarian Kate Murray feels when she meets Maggie McCallum, a lonely, troubled young teen. And when she meets the girl’s father, Dr. Michael McCallum, Kate fears she may fall hard for them both. But there is a mystery to the McCallums: a missing mother and wife, whose death left both daughter and husband heavily burdened with guilt. It takes a shared interest in Shakespearean theater, a horrendous thunderstorm, and a willingness to let go of the past for these three to finally become a family.
