<p>I grew up in West Michigan and am a charter member and previous past President of Grand Rapids Region Writers Group. I currently live in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii.<br />
<br />
Beside writing, I spend my time reading, cooking, baking, quilting and making things for my grandchildren.<br />
<br />
For all those thinking about writing a book, please follow your dream as I did. Grow a tough hide, add some perseverance, and never stop learning. If you have a dream, why not follow it?</p>
