THE POWER OF STORIES • THE JOY OF CREATIVITY
Welcome!
Join me . . .
. . . in exploring the power of stories, the magic of creativity, and the joy of writing.
I fling words around as a writer, editor, and teacher of fiction writing classes in the San Francisco Bay Area. I write tales of love, ghosts, and murder, sometimes all three in one book. I also write about the art and craft of fiction writing, and I take pleasure in helping other authors achieve their writing goals.

STORIES BY NORTHERN CALIFORNIA CRIME WRITERS
This new anthology from the Northern California chapter of Sisters in Crime contains 16 short stories around the theme of plants, animals, and yes, humans who cause trouble in places where they don't belong and are not wanted. I'm thrilled the book includes a tale of mine called "Open House," in which a real estate agent must decide what to do when an unsavory pair of characters arrive at a home for sale and begin tearing it apart.
Check out the full details.
