I have written two nonfiction books, I'm embarrassed to say.

Life has never been easy. Nor is it meant to be. It is a matter of being joyous in the face of sorrow.

I write from the same place I parent, and since becoming a single parent, I have found it difficult, if not impossible, to write anything of length.

From dear, dear Gloria Swanson, I learned how to live long, happy and free of health problems. I owe her my life.
