My books are promises kept to my wonderful daughter, Marisa, who lost a long battle to pediatric cancer. We were supposed to create a great fantasy novel after she graduated from Duke University but death intervened. We still created the Portals series together... just in a different way. After a great career as a teacher and a nurse, I am now a full time writer sharing life with my beautiful partner Bobbi and a very articulate dog named Buster. We can be found in a portal somewhere in upstate New York. A portion of all sales are donated to The Marisa Fund. This charity works tirelessly to find a cure for pediatric cancer and to support children with cancer and those who love them. You can get more information at Marisafund.org.
