No books to report as of yet, but I'm thrilled to announced that my favorite short story, "Diapers, Demons and Dishes" has finally found a home with Literarymama, an on-line journal, and will be published on September 7th. Check it out here: literarymama.com
This story was written for a writing class I took many years ago (my youngest child wasn't even born yet, and he's fifteen now). It got me into graduate school, got me into the Clarion Science Fiction Writing workshop, but never seemed to get a "Yes, we'll publish this!" from any of the magazines I sent it to. I am so glad I can share it with more than my critique partners now.
If you have any comments on this story, I'd love to hear them. Or enter my contest.

Upon a Wedding Series

Ballad
This series follows the romantic escapades of the Victorian Fenster family. I hope you enjoy reading their tales as much as I enjoyed writing them. Each story is built around a central myth, legend or fairy tale, since I'm a sucker for them. Of course, I gave all the tales my own happy ending twist, too!

Kate Fenster wanted to believe that Sean McCarthy wanted to marry her for love, not money. But the exasperating man made it difficult when he climbed into her bed on Christmas morning, precipitated a hasty Twelfth Night wedding--and then disappeared home to Ireland on their wedding night.

The Impetuous Bride
