The Christmas Field is my new Christmas book, which will be released in time for Christmas 2023.

It tells the story of a young girl who wants to make the world a better place, by preserving her Christmas trees, thus creating a field of memories.

Ernie spends his days, and most nights, under his beloved bridge, watching the river roll by, and conjuring magical notes of music from his old, worn harmonica. He has never stopped looking for his twin brother who disappeared, as a small child, into the eye of the most devastating ice storm the town has ever known. He keeps his counsel, alone, until one spring evening, Bert wanders along. Bert changes everything for Ernie and for the little town, although no one thinks he’s anything special at first. Bert is a dog of indeterminate breed, with strange markings and a gentle, peculiar manner. And Rosie, the odd, motherless girl-child who lives along the river path, too, grows to love that silly dog with all her heart and soul
A vagrant, gifted dog. A wise, wayward fellow, who may or may not be a prophet. A relentlessly cheerful girl who views the world in her own curious manner. The unlikeliest of trios.
This is the story of their once-in-a-lifetime summer together. A summer full of sunshine and friendship and intrigue. A summer of losing precious things. And finding so much more.

I  was thrilled when my newest book Just a Bit of Magic was picked up by Water Dragon Publishing. It was released on March 16, 2020. That's right-just when the pandemic began. So that leaves book signings out for now. But this book is still available to purchase on Amazon, both as a paperback and as a Kindle edition.

Leave a Light on for Christmas was published in 2013 by Strategic Book Publishing. It is a story of an elderly woman recounting her many Christmas pasts to her great-granddaughter. There is a video on YouTube, describing the story.

A Winter Town was published in 2011. This is my first mystery, told from the point of view of a young female who runs a "detection" agency with her brother. He sends her to a remote, northern town to re-investigate the year old murder of a local sixteen year old boy. The purpose of her trip is mainly to appease the boy's mother.

She becomes involved in the lives of the local people and the truth she unravels will haunt her for the rest of her life.

My first book Among Little Faces was published in 2008. It is a tale of a young girl who is raised by her grandparents and her sixteen year old mother. She faces many challenges but never loses her inherent sense of joy and love in the everyday beauty of life.
