True confession time. I have a wicked sense of humor in case you hadn't noticed. My true desire and hope is that I made you laugh while reading this book. My mission is to change the world with laughter one book at a time.

I write the Florida Parker Bell humorous mystery series featuring the Lady Gatorettes. Florida crazy isn't just for tourists, the natives are unique in their own special way. Those zany folks who who live in northeast Florida can't quite make up their minds if they belong in Florida or south Georgia. They do believe in having a good time along with some mayhem, mischief, murder, and wackiness thrown in there. My laugh-out-loud books are clean with no cursing or graphic sex. Read them today!

I grew up in Palatka, Florida, traveled the Southeast extensively for a number of years, and currently reside in Jacksonville, Florida. I decided for my health and well-being it was better to live elsewhere once people in my hometown realized the Parker Bell Cozy Mystery series is loosely (very loosely, according to my attorney) based on them.

When I'm not doing my favorite thing...writing...I enjoy walking her little rescue dog, traveling, reading books, and cracking my friends up with funny stories and my sense of humor.
