From adventures in journalism to fiction and creative nonfiction, a lifelong passion for writing and reading has guided me over terrain rough and smooth. 

        An award-winning writer with an MFA in prose and more than twenty-five years’ experience working with writers and writing for the public, I bring energy, enthusiasm, and an informed, flexible approach to working with others.  

         I have published in metro Boston newspapers and arts and literary magazines, including Art New England, the Boston Globe, Boston Review, and Harvard Review. My fiction and creative nonfiction have appeared in Harvard Review, Circa,  Shadowbox Magazine, Wild Apples: A Journal of Nature, Art, and Inquiry, Poetry Porch, the T.J. Eckleburg Review (Johns Hopkins), and others. 

         I love to share what I have learned by helping writers polish and gain insight into their work. Toward that end, it is vital to engage your questions and concerns at the outset.

         Please be in touch for compassionate critiques, editing services, inspiration, guidance, and support with your latest project. I am always happy to get together (over cappuccino!) to discuss in more detail or dialog via email and phone, as geography and time-constraints dictate.
