Current Work
I am promoting my new novel that was release in March 2011 - Norah, The Making of an Irish-American Woman in 19th-Century New York,published by Lucky Press L.L.C. It is historical fiction for adults. I have written a screenplay, The Blue Vega, that I need to shop around, as well as a musical play, Diamond Juba, based on a scene in my sequel. |
Short Bio
I am a children's writer, freelance writer, romance writer ("Loving You in Waltz Hold," for a dance magazine in Ireland), short story writer, and essayist. I wrote and directed a play in 1997 and I owned a tea catering business. I am a community volunteer, paralegal, and fitness instructor. I host ceilis (Irish dances) and I'm an Irish set and sean nos (freestyle Irish dance) dancer.
