Welcome!

Writer, actor, and dilettante photographer—I’m a lover of words and of pictures worth a thousand of them. I’m a good wife, a fine dog walker and a lousy gardener. I’m happy, but you’d never know it from looking at my back yard.

About Camelot & Vine…

I’m seeking representation for my historic fantasy novel, Camelot & Vine.

On her fortieth birthday, Casey Clemens gets fired from her Hollywood acting job, flees Los Angeles to London, flies through a gap in time, crash-lands in the sixth century and accidentally saves King Arthur’s life. So far, forty is not as dull as Casey had expected.

My Hollywood acting career lends reality to Casey’s adventure. I’ve performed improv, Shakespeare, animation, commercials and TV (Dexter, How I Met Your Mother, E.R. and many more). That background gives me an innate knowledge of structure and dialogue, not to mention heartfelt sympathy for my character’s predicament.

• Adding content to my website. I just added the Updates page. Then I added stuff to it. Then I added more stuff.

I’ve also been walking the dog, eating clementines and occasionally running the dishwasher but I guess that’s not what we mean when we say “the latest.” Is it?
