“I love writing.
I love the swirl and swing of words
as they tangle with human emotions.”
James Michener

I’ve been married to Jay for 11 years, and mother Natasha, Melody, and Elisha. The other elements of my personality manifest daily and frequently need to be put in proper perspective.

Coloring all is my belief in a God that is intimately involved in my tiny human existence, and in Jesus as God-incarnate, who came to save us from ourselves.

There seems to be an image in the world at large of a woman’s brains turning to mush when she limits her world to “home.” I suspect I have an opposite problem: my head’s more in danger of exploding from all the thoughts growing throughout the day.

Blogging is a convenient release valve.

Untangling Tales is a place to explore all that pleases me: stories, words, writing, some music, and discovering ideas.

I love to read and write and talk about stories. I love folklore and its commentary on the human condition. For for several years I have been working on this novel, and have many additional book ideas waiting in the wings. Where they go and how fast is frequently a question in my mind.
