About the Author
Following graduation, she spent several years acting in New York City before settling in Los Angeles, where she established an early career in prime-time television. It was during this stage that she met the man she would marry and, with the birth of her daughter, shifted her focus to writing. Her first effort was a screenplay. Though it never made it to production, the script was optioned by several sets of producers—for over a decade—until she pulled it off the market to rewrite it as a book. It's called Madder Blue. The manuscript is now complete at 83,878 words. And she is currently seeking representation. |
