Like most of you, I read fiction for pure pleasure. I like to get lost in a story that takes me to a different time and place, with authentic characters whose company I enjoy. It’s been this way since third grade, when Miss Cora Shipman said “Class, get out your pleasure books,” and we would delve into the story books borrowed from the school library.
I also write fiction for pure pleasure. I love working with the characters who come to life in my head, helping their stories unfold. My interest in foodways is ever-present, so what people eat is part of my fiction, too. In hopes others will like my work, I am offering a changing selection of stories here, some as free PDFs and others as inexpensive e-books. Please check back often to see what’s new.
