My poetry and prose has been published in both online and print literary journals and anthologies, including Gander Press Review, Spindle, The Muse Strikes Back (Story Line Press), Bridges (Indiana University Press), and Iodine Poetry Journal.
I have probably been influenced by all of the books I have ever read, poetry and prose, from T.S. Eliot to Nancy Drew. The influences on my romance writing were the Silhouette romances of the early '80s. However, all the great novels of love and romance from Jane Austen, the Brontes, etc. had their effect.
