About Me

I'm kinda normal, except that I write books. I think I'm a fun person who loves to laugh, no matter how dumb the joke. I'm crazy about my kids and dogs and would love to adopt a cat, too. I like old rock and roll and new country music. I love the beach and the mountains and the Columbia River Gorge. And mountain drinks . . . you know the ones made with coffee, some liquor, and whipped cream. (You can drink mountain drinks at the beach--no one will know. Or even in the city. Just keep it to yourself.) My favorite season is autumn--crisp days, hot apple cider, cool, clear nights and Halloween. How can you beat that?
