Here you will find the thoughts, ideas, and ramblings of an artist/writer mother and grandmother. Come visit with me for a while, and watch while I play among the words of the English language. Rest, relax, enjoy a cup of coffee or a glass of wine, and experience with me the art of make-believe as I paint a magic world of stories for kids and teens, one word at a time.

Please click on Painted Words and Other Oddities if you want to read my blog,  and if you want to know about some of my published work, please click on Quill and Ink. Hopefully, you will be intrigued, amazed, and amused by some of the Characters I Have Known, when they come tumbling out of my Works In Progress, as well sneaking, strutting, crawling, and jumping out of Present and Future Novels and Stories. And please don't forget to let me know what you are thinking by leaving a comment. Enjoy!
