Fiction for Today's Woman

WELCOME
I primarily write women's fiction, but because life is complicated, I write about so much more. What is women's fiction? It is a story that could be taken from real life. It is a story that women can relate to because it's more than just romance. These stories revolve around issues all women, especially the Boomer women of my generation, deal with – marriage, divorce, children, parents. You know, the stuff that makes up our everyday lives.
