home

Home is a word which brings positive thoughts to mind. Welcome to my site.  It’s a place to sit down, relax and put your feet up.  A place to talk about your day. The heart of every home is the kitchen. That’s where Buddy the beagle is quick to gobble any morsels of food which drop to the floor. Buddy is the main character in my Tails of Blueberry Street children’s book series. If you are a media specialist or teacher in the Central Florida area, click on school visits for information about what programs I offer.

I am a storyteller and a poet. Everyday life inspires me. You can find my writings by clicking blog. They are also organized into the categories shown in the sidebar of this page.

Many readers appreciate my positive outlook on life seasoned with my own unique style of writing. (So far, the only time I ventured near politics was when I nominated my pet beagle for president during the 2016 election.) The central theme of my blog is “stories are meant to be shared. ” I’ve learned there are stories all around me, whether I’m shopping at my neighborhood grocery, or chatting with a park ranger at a campground. I want to inspire my readers to appreciate the beauty of the world around them and value simple moments in their daily routines.
