I feel the need for a 'personal' page, as I have a lot to share about myself, the book club, and my family. Since my web site is intended to be more of a marketing tool, I have decided to password protect the 'bio' page since it's irrelevant to possible clients, employers, and the general public.

eMail me to get the password, and I'll happily provide upon request!

Creative writing is a passion. A Friendly Agreement is available upon request, and is a short story about coming of age in a San Antonio military school, and is based on an experience of mine while attending as a teenage cadet.

After Jitterbug Moon (about my grandmother and her husband, Gene) is published, I'll have it available here online. It's a story about the South, and how love can be elusive for 62 years, but then find the bloom on the rose late in life. It's based upon the true story of my grandmother and her husband. They met in 1934, and did not marry until 1998. Just goes to show true love can triumph over time.

Please eMail me if you would like an advance look.

Visit my site, Houston Book Club.com to learn about what the book club has been doing since 1989, books we've read, pictures and bios of members, and a few good links! eMail me if you would like to join this fine reading group. We are now offering "Cool Reviews" that I wrote of books we have read.
