Hello! And welcome to my little corner of cyber space. I'm a New England native who once dreamed of raising my family in Europe and avoided anything that had to do with the American West (apologies to a large chunk of the USA). Today, I'm a walking testimony to God’s sense of humor, since I live (quite happily) in Montana with my husband of twenty-one years, two teenage daughters, a sweet-hearted Alaskan Malamute, two horses, and an ever-changing number of chickens.

When not immersed in writing or honing important life skills as a mom and homemaker (and wading into the waters of homeschooling), you can find me knitting anything from clothes to toys, crafting for the home, or creating dioramas for my 16-inch poseable dolls (Ellowyne Wilde, anyone?).
