About

My short story, “Stick and Strings” was published in Mid-American Review and was nominated for a Pushcart Prize. I was accepted into Indiana University’s MFA program, where I won the Ellis Literary Award for my short story, “The Tannery.”
I had stopped writing fiction when I became a librarian, but returned a few years ago with “Puzzle Trees.” An earlier draft, “The Green Apettes,” was one of three finalists in 2010 Leapfrog Press YA fiction.
I am looking for an agent.
