I am a “hot-flashing” humorist/writer, wife of twenty-five years, and mother of two daughters and three dogs. The frozen Tundra of Minneapolis Minnesota is our home.

For twenty years, I played a soccer Mom, and corporate wife; alias “June Cleaver” clone. Tired of housework, I realized that becoming a writer was a dream of mine, and I was determined to pursue it. My husband’s wit and childish behavior make him the butt of my much of my humor. Someday I will make him
famous. Hey, Homer Simpson did not become a star overnight.

In an apparent act of revenge, my husband has become a Top Gun wanna-be.  He now touts a private pilot license and provides ample opportunity to validate my fear of flying.  My daughters, while both in college, come home regularly because they suffer from “run-outta”: run-outta food, clothes and /or money.

When I am not wearing the letters off of my keyboard, I love to travel, read and garden.  Now that my husband and I are on the verge of becoming empty nesters, the Thrill Seeker and I are sharing his new dream and are seeing this beautiful country from the air. You know for a writer, I am not a half bad co-pilot, once I got over my fear of flying


My families’ antics (including the “Fur Ball Trio”) provide me with ample material. While I enjoy writing inspirational and animal related pieces, my first love is humor. You can also find me on Facebook and Ha! Humor Writers.
