Despite my early love of writing, I focused most of my adult life on raising a family, leaving an untold number of outlines, story snippets, and half-finished manuscripts simmering on the back burner for “someday.” In the meantime, I homeschooled my four children and became a devoted lover of cozy campfires, British crime dramas, and tongue-in-cheek humor. My someday finally arrived when my youngest graduated from high school, and I’ve been writing the Kaleidoscope series and content for my blog ever since.
