I’ve always loved words. As a child, I earned the
nicknames motor-mouth and jabber jaws for my love of talking and telling
stories. Later, as an avid reader, I wrote mainly to analyze. A triple major in
history, politics, and English , I viewed life in terms of paper topics! Still,
I played with writing short stories and poetry. Then life took over—I became a
wife, mother, teacher, and coach—and even though I continued to read, I rarely
wrote anything creatively.
About ten years ago, some teacher friends and I were
talking about books and decided to try to write our own. One friend found her
groove with the challenge, and has had numerous novels published. I spent years
on two connected novels, both still unpublished. However, at the encouragement
of my friend, I tried once again to write a novel. I choose the name Persephone
for my heroine because I teach mythology, and used the tale as a
springboard. 
Knight of the Dead
Persephone
Richards is in a pinch. With a wrecked car and bills stacking up, the income
from her job at the daycare isn’t enough. Mark Lawrence needs a sitter for his
little girl and Persephone is perfect for the job. What begins as an employment
opportunity leads to romance. However, a secret Persephone hides threatens the
happy ever after and puts the three of them in danger.You can purchase Knight of the Dead on Amazon or Barnes & Noble
