Indiana Bamboo and Indiana Bamboo and the Not-Missing Mummy grew from my memories and imaginings of my early childhood in Ohio and the small town where I was raised in Indiana. Indiana Bamboo won the Tennessee Mountain Writers Excalibur Award for a first-time novelist, First Place, Children’s Book (Fiction) in the Connecticut Press Club's Communications Contest, and was the New Voices in Children’s Literature: Tassy Walden Awards Middle Grade Honor Book. I began writing 28 Days of Neon while vacationing with our extended family at our rustic cabin in Maine, much like Neon’s family’s cabin in Maine. I love canoeing, kayaking, and being with the family at the cabin, but I don’t love bumping into giant hairy spiders in the outhouse in the middle of the night. 28 Days of Neon was awarded First Place, Children's Book (Fiction) in the Connecticut Press Club's 2025 Communications Contest and Third Place in the National Federation of Press Women's 2025 National Communications Contest. Both 28 Days of Neon and Indiana Bamboo and the Not-Missing Mummy were selected as Tassy Walden Awards Middle Grade Finalists. I received my Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing from Manhattanville College, and I have taught English and Writing at the University of Connecticut and Connecticut State Community College. I am also a lawyer and a former Literary Trustee of the Lorraine Hansberry (A Raisin in the Sun) Properties Trust. I love visiting schools, bookstores, and libraries, and I especially enjoy the wonderful imaginations of students of all ages in creative writing workshops. While our children were growing up, we had almost as many pets as Indiana Bamboo does. We had cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, goldfish, turtles, hermit crabs, dogs, including a lab mix like Rainbow in 28 Days of Neon, and the occasional garter snakes who were banished to a terrarium on our front porch. Now we live with one rambunctious pup who is as wise as Rainbow and who loves to dance.
