Many writers play Spider Solitaire or Free Cell "instead" of writing. Back in the days before computers, I sat in the middle of my bed and played solitaire with a deck of "real" cards while I figured out what to do with the characters running around in my head. Now I know this is called "plotting" or "brainstorming." Solitaire still works for me, as do other computer pastimes. Here are a few "plotting" websites.
I grew up near Cardiff, New York, briefly famous for its

which turned out to be

A thirty-year career in local television included:
Nowadays, I focus on writing

I'm a member of Central New York Romance Writers and Romance Writers of America.
When I'm not doing the wife/mommy thing,
I read, write, listen to music, crochet a little, and laugh with my friends.
This website is about my writing. There are excerpts from my completed manuscripts in the books section; articles about secret-identity heroes in the essays section, plus links to some fun things.
I hope you enjoy your visit.
