More about me

I've been a journalist, newspaper editor, and ad/marketing copywriter. I now write mystery novels for fun. I lived in Minnesota for about 30 years and have been retired in New Mexico for almost 4 years.

Favorite Movies

O Brother Where Art Thou? (anything by the Coen Bros), Chicago, The Sea Inside, tons of foreign films -- they only export the good ones

Favorite TV Shows

Project Runway -- the only one I try to catch weekly -- and it's seasonal.

Activities

line dancing, aerobics, writing, reading, studying Spanish

Favorite Charities

Salvation Army

Favorite Music

bluegrass

Favorite Books

I've read Cold Mountain three times, that's a record for me. I like mysteries, not violent thrillers. I love memoirs. Literary novels, if they're not about angst-ridden yuppies.

Favorite Quotes

Life is empty and meaningless And it's empty and meaningless That life is empty and meaningless.

Favorite People

My friends, my kids. I used to want to come back as Leslie Stahl in my next life.

Favorite Places

New Mexico, Costa Rica, Peru

Favorite Animals

All the horses, dogs and cats I've "owned" over the years; currently, my little Sheltie
