Hello, friends and visitors. As many of you know, I am now living near Shepherdstown, WV, a beautiful, historic town on the Potomac. I am happy to announce my historical fiction ghost story BEYOND THE STONE EAGLE GATE has recently been published. Softcover print copies are available at the Four Seasons Bookstore in Shepherdstown, WV.  Digital copies can be obtained on Amazon, Kobo, Tolino, Baker and Taylor, Scribd, and Barnes and Noble. If you're not near Shepherdstown, you can order print copies from On-Line stores such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

Another exciting announcement: my middle grade story THE WHISPERING CHIMNEY has its debut Nov. 28, 2019. In this story eleven-year-old Bethany discovers a mysterious stone chimney on a ridge behind her family's rented farm. What happens there opens her eyes to both the past and the present. The question is: can crossing back in time kill her?

Review of The Whispering Chimney
A story of love and courage, The Whispering Chimney enthralled me from the first page until the last. Set amidst the well-described beauty of rural West Virginia, eleven-year-old Bethany discovers the ghosts of a bygone era still walk along the hills. This window on the past becomes clearer, and draws the reader deep into struggles once endured. Recommended for young readers as an interwoven tale of the long-past and challenging present.
