I have been a professional writer since 1987. I've written for newspapers, magazines, worked in the book publishing industry, and published novels and non-fiction books. In addition, I've guided numerous authors through the process of independent publishing, and offer workshops in that same vein. I'm the founder of the Parkinson's Comfort Project and over the course of six years, we gathered and gave away over 500 handmade quilts to people with Parkinson's disease.

I set myself the task of binding 16 quilts by the end of January, which is tomorrow.

(Now where did that month go?)

All but one of these gems is destined to be given away through the Parkinson’s Comfort Project.

That 16th one is actually the first quilt I ever made for my Mom. The binding came off when it was washed and I promised my sister I’d put it back together again so she can have it.

Today, I’m down to three quilts.

Whew!! I think I’m gonna make it.
