About the author

In my sixty three years of life, I didn't know that I had a story waiting to be told. A serial entrepreneur, I have founded six very different businesses, but never saw writing on my radar.

In 2006, I attended a week-long memoir writing class in Guatemala, conducted by a best-selling author whose worked I had followed since the 80's. Joyce Maynard was much kinder to me than I was to myself, and she worked hard to get my best work out of me, in spite of myself. While it was a wonderful experience, I determined that writing, especially about myself, was not a talent I possessed.

The workshop did, however, give me confidence to write in a more structured way for my profession. I'm a Board Certified Hypnotist. I've self-published two books, written curriculums, and blogged topical and inspirational content online regularly for the past seven years.

Fifteen years after the Guatemala workshop, I used self-hypnosis to find the inspiration to write something fun. I love relatable characters that I feel I know intimately. I'm excited to watch the story unfold as I type, and I wonder what's going to happen next. That's what I hope my readers will experience. A sequel to A Knock on the Door is currently being written, and I've got two more ideas tumbling around in my head. Who knows what words will flow across the screen in the next fifteen years!

Update #1 - Thanks for making me #1 June 1, 2021

Thanks! In one day you reserved 50 copies of A Knock on the Door! That made me the best seller of the week in this genre, and emails went to all subscribers in this category to introduce my book to them. Hopefully that will encourage more reservations. There is one publisher that has expressed interest, although I won't find out any information on that until the campaign is over in 29 days!

I only (!) need 450 more copies reserved, and I don't think my contacts will be enough to get there. If you are comfortable with doing so, I'm attaching a short introduction that you can copy and paste to others that you know who like to read or who may just like to support a new writer. 

Thanks again! I'll update you next week to let you know how it's going!

I wanted to tell you about Roberta, a friend of mine that has written a novel called A Knock on the Door. It's a fast-paced crime thriller that you may enjoy. She's trying to sign with a publisher who expects 500 reservations in the next 30 days. She had 50 books reserved the first day, so she's on her way! But she needs a lot more support. Here is the link to check it out: https://publishizer.com/a-knock-on-the-door/

If she doesn't reach her goal, you'll get your money back, so there's nothing to lose and potentially a great read to gain! Thanks in advance for helping her out.
