Thank you so much for checking out my goodreads page! I adore readers, all readers, and I am beyond blessed to be able to have my books out in the universe. I love to interact with readers--its my favorite part of the job! My first book, The Flood Girls, was released in 2016 by Simon & Schuster/Gallery, and received starred reviews from Kirkus and Publisher's Weekly, and was chosen by Target as a book of the month. In 2019, I published and edited a compilation of memoirs of women from Montana, entitled We Leave The Flowers Where They Are, with proceeds benefiting arts advocacy programs for underserved women throughout the state. My current book, The Small Crimes Of Tiffany Templeton, is my first foray into YA, and published by Penguin/Razorbill. I received an MFA from Sarah Lawrence College, and worked for twenty years as a social worker for adults with intellectual disabilities. Currently, I live in Missoula, Montana, where I spend my time volunteering as a creative writing teacher, creating haute couture, and doting on my rescue dogs. I would love to hear from you! Thank you so very much for being a reader--I'm a huge fan of so many authors, and am grateful to be able to interact with friends on this website, old and new!
