march08an1thumbnail.jpgFrom Southern roots to Midwestern life: I grew up in Mississippi, and I love cornbread, muscadines, and SEC football. After spending a few years in St. Louis, I went back home to get a college degree in English literature. But I’d fallen in love with a St. Louis boy, and he (finally) married me and brought me back.

These days we live just outside of St. Louis: me, my husband Joe and our two children, Mara and Robbie. With two children under two, plus a crazy, spontaneous husband, a family business, a community youth organization, and life in general, I work hard to be organized and efficient so I can feed the insatiable writing beast and still have time to sleep.

As well as maintaining Writers Unbound, I also write on growth, creativity, and building a better life at SisterWisdom.
