Welcome!

This page is dedicated to writing.

For many years I was American Thought Editor, columnist and frequent contributor of articles for USA Today Magazine, which (as have all too many nonprofits) ceased due to lack of funding. Other publications include St. Anthony Messenger, The Priest, and the Journal of Counseling and Development.

I am venturing now into the world of fiction, launching a series based in the fictional west-central Florida town of Sunflower Beach. The first novel, Falling Feathers, was released in August 2025.  In Falling Feathers, Alex, a middle-aged librarian, wife and mother, tries to reclaim her life despite the constant interference of family and friends trying to be “helpful.” I hope you enjoy!

The second novel in the series, Never Just One, focuses on Beth, Alex’s daughter-in-law, who seems to have the perfect life, and slowly discovers that, when it comes to lies, there is never just one. Never Just One was published in November, 2025.

 The third book, The Year of Chaos, will be out in Spring, 2026, and the fourth expected in Autumn, 2026. Meanwhile, both Falling Feathers and Never Just One are available on Amazon and at a reduced price here: https://shop.ingramspark.com/b/084?params=6g1DK6NSiLZlZblxTwfBh83oR2v1HPYvTk8yLA25rAU for Falling Feathers and here: https://shop.ingramspark.com/b/084?params=creRL7xtVpvRKwtI3oo7G3IWjLFa7CXz38Ou5ZTTV5j for Never Just One

My Crow Logo is my original artwork, drawn from my snapshot, in honor of “Poe,” a crow who visited often and brought gifts from time to time, most notably a large orange gummy fish, a page of Scripture, and an empty packet of sunflower seeds – the latter a very blatant hint!
