Hi! Welcome to my website! My goal with the TIME TO WRITE book series is to help you achieve all of your writing dreams. One way I can do that is to show you how to find time to write no matter how busy you are! So many people want to be writers, but in the course of living your hectic life, it’s sometimes hard to know where to start! I know because I’ve been there. I work and have a family, but even so I have published books as well as articles and essays in magazines and anthologies.

After I started getting published, people asked me where I found time to write, so I wrote TIME TO WRITE: More than 100 Professional Writers Reveal How to Fit Writing Into Your Busy Life (Jan 08, Adams Media), to demonstrate how I fit writing into my busy life so that you can do it, too! And because no one is born published, I included tips and advice from bestselling authors including Sandra Brown, Catherine Coulter, Wendy Corsi Staub, Merline Lovelace, Steve Berry, Tess Gerritsen, Ann Major, Cherry Adair, Christine Feehan, Julia London, Eloisa James, Barbara Delinsky, JoAnn Ross, Hallie Ephron, Jodi Picoult, Jennifer Blake, Mary Jo Putney, Rick Mofina, Pamela Morsi, Robyn Carr, Carla Neggers, Debbie Macomber, Roxanne St. Claire, and Tara Taylor Quinn; all of these writers talk about how they found time to write before they were career-published, and their tips are practical and easy-to-implement. There are solutions to every writer’s obstacles in TIME TO WRITE!

My second book, THINKING WRITE: The Secret to Freeing Your Creative Mind (Adams Media, October 2009) is a companion book to TIME TO WRITE and reveals how to unlock your writing potential by using the power of your subconscious mind. As a licensed counselor, I know how powerful the mind is, and when you have limited writing time, you want to tap into your incredible wellspring of creativity so that you can achieve your writing goals fast and easy! THINKING WRITE comes with a companion CD with four guided meditations just for writers to help you implement some of the techniques taught in the book.

LIVING WRITE: The Secret to Bringing Your Craft Into Your Daily Life (Adams Media, Sept 2010) is the third book in the TIME TO WRITE series and focuses on the power of daily writing; it demonstrates how you can begin to bring the craft of writing more and more into your life, and how you can build on small steps to achieve big writing goals. LIVING WRITE has inspiration for the aspiring writer as well as the established writer who needs a “booster shot” of motivation and creativity. LIVING WRITE also comes with a companion CD with four guided meditations just for writers, including one that helps you get ready to write!
