About the Author

Born in Michigan years ago, I called Colorado home for twenty-five years before retiring to my home state. I am married, have two married daughters and four granddaughters. I've worn many "hats" in my lifetime in the following order: Sibling, student, wife, mother, friend, Welcome Wagon Hostess, college student, English teacher, author of a writing manual, manager of writing instructors in industry, and currently, author/publisher. I entered Denver's Red Rocks Community College then completed a Master's degree at the University of Denver in my forties. I taught basic writing skills in industry and college in my fifties, but my glorious sixties found me writing FROM ASHES A DEEP CANYON TALE, the story of my heart.
