Professional freelance writer with 15 years' experience, primarily in magazine and newspaper features. I've written over 500 paid professional articles, including features in Victorian Homes magazine, The Washington Post, Baltimore Sun and Philadelphia Inquirer, Maryland Life, Chesapeake Life, What's Up Eastern Shore (as Managing Editor) & others.
My favorite writing topics are home (especially historic homes), Halloween, parenting, and day-to-day humor. Please visit my Creative Holiday Celebrations or Creative Halloween sites.
I have a blog called Pajamas & Coffee and I am the author of the books Adult Halloween Parties and Cape May for All Seasons. I am mother of four children ranging in age from fifteen to three. Our family lives in a spooky-looking 1881 Second Empire Victorian house which undergoes perpetual restoration!
