the accidental writer

I am a writer from Albany, NY and the author of Kennedy’s Goodbye, a novel about love and yearning, despair, and maybe hope.

I have always craved quiet creative moments to write, and spent years eking them out when I could, or scribbling words onto napkins or into iPhone notes when inspiration came yelling. Turns out, every second counts and every word matters, and now it’s become my job to carve out the necessary time to write. Writing fills my soul and empties my brain.

I love to read, most especially on Saturday and Sunday mornings in bed with black coffee, my hubby, and Tatum purring on or beside me.

I love to cook, drink wine, eat, walk, and spend time with those who nurture our connections. I am the mom of four and grandmother of eight.

I’d love to be inspirational and say something like “follow your dreams,” but that’s not really me. I’d much rather you listened to your heart, and spent your time hearing it.

Always the hours.
