As a mother of six sons, I’m getting a little payback by putting my kids in my stories. Sometimes they’re the hero, others they’re the villain, and somedays their the smelly corpse on the side of the road. The running joke is don’t piss off mom, she’ll put you in her book and kill you off on page fifty. My grandkids are now begging to be put in my books and plotting their own murders. It’s always interesting when we all get together, especially at a restaurant.

My stories represent my love of family and friends even as I plan my murder and mayhem. I believe in happy endings and that anything can be overcome with humor and help from friends.
