A native New Yorker, a Queens girl, I have a love of books. I began
writing many years ago as a hobby, that ultimately turned into a
passion. I wanted my first book to be mystery,  I just didn't know it
would be so much fun to write.

Inventing the characters of Odessa and Maggie were like discovering
new friends. And the people that surround them are like family. I
wanted to create people who sounded familiar, who looked like the
people I'd meet and come from the city I love.

I hope that those of you who purchased Pennywise enjoyed reading it
as much as I did writing it. Please look for my new book in the
Maggie and Odessa Mysteries series
''Drop Dead Delicious"  coming
out in
2008
