Author.  Coach.  Speaker.

My interest in creative writing grew from recording counseling sessions — summaries that are somewhat comparable to flash fiction — over 30 years as a counselor and somatic therapist.

I attended a weekly writing group led by Carrie Knowles, the 2014 Piedmont Laureate in Short Fiction, for 10 years, and I was a member of the oldest reading series in central NC. My literary flash fiction and short stories have been published in print and on-line anthologies, including Tethered By Letters and 100 Voices: Volume 3.

When I’m not writing or counseling, I enjoy the impossibility of Argentine tango and talking myself out of despair caused by the traffic snarl-ups of Texas highways (with my cat) — snippets of these conundrums can be found on my blog.
