I recently wrote my third book Boomer Chicks Mask Up. Being an indie author, I had to come up with the money to publish my book. I am a Nancy Ann Storybook Doll collector. I decided to sell my dolls with frozen legs on eBay to publish my book. I was successful and made just enough money to hand over my manuscript to Author House Publishing. I still have all my jointed dolls proudly displayed in cases throughout the house. They are adorable. I met so many doll collectors who were more than happy to buy my dolls and give them a loving new home. Doll collecting doesn’t define me, but it has always inspired me. I’ve passed on my dolls. Now I can pass on my story too.
Authors Have Hobbies Too

Hello: I am a writer who directs your attention to life in the 'now'. My most recent masterpiece is Losing the Boomer Blues. This whimsical story is about 3 old friends traveling back in time to lose their boomer blues. I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and fell in love with writing at a very early age. I have written many short stories and poems down through the years. I've won awards but more than that I have won the hearts of my readers. I became a member of the Oakland Art Association in the late '90s and devoted many years to creating collage art but never stopped writing. I decided to start writing Losing the Boomer Blues in 2016 and finished writing it in August of 2018. It was with great pride that I self-published it in October of 2018. This charming story appeals not only to my baby boomer counterparts but to those of all ages who find the Summer of Love a quest for peace, freedom, and equality. The struggle for unity will never die. We are the United States. Divided is an impossibility. View more posts
