I'm an award-winning former features reporter for both the Chicago Sun Times and Arizona Daily Star whose articles have appeared in publications from Rolling Stone to Huff Po. I'm also a doting mother and grandmother living in the wild Southwest--that's the view from my writing desk in Tucson up top. There is nothing more beautiful than an Arizona sunset...
I've been writing since before I could actually write. As a toddler I would scribble on scraps of paper, "dictating" little babble stories to myself just for fun. I've explored and explained the worlds I've lived in through writing for almost 70 years--and the adventure continues to this day, here on Medium.
Welcome!
