Welcome to
my website!

This is the fourth incarnation in seventeen years of connecting to readers and I hope you find it both beautiful and informative.

I’m grateful to my author colleague and tech guru Susanne Dunlap, who created the site, taught me how to navigate and make it my own, and whose generosity and wisdom have been a welcome light in these pandemic times.

Please dip into what you find here—excerpts from my books to entertain you, recipes to try out instead of take-out, and back issues of my newsletter to open a window into the musings of the writing mind.

For those of you who have read my work and are wondering what’s next, please know that I’m working on a novel set in early 20th Century Vienna. The protagonist is Maya Sircos, the muse and lover of a young Expressionist painter during an era marked by the confluence of art, music, science, and psychology. It was an extraordinary time in Viennese history and I am excited to bring it to life through the eyes of a singular woman.

I invite you to enjoy the website.
