I'm a nomad at heart. Born in Thailand, I grew up mostly in Ireland and England. As an adult,

I've lived in North America: first in the States and now Canada has become my home. I was fortunate to spend a year traveling with my husband and now-grown children in Australia,

New Zealand, the Galapagos Islands and Europe. I’ve lived aboard a sailboat for months at a time, sailing on Lake Ontario, along the eastern seaboard, and in the Caribbean and Mediterranean Seas. Settings are important to me when I write, and I love lyrical language. I aim to create emotionally rich stories across genres. As my first audience, I often have tears in my eyes.

I hope that if I'm moved, my readers will be too.
