New Work: The Kindle/EBook FIERY WORLD, a story of a young girl in grief who meets Acheron -- a God and the River of Woe in Hades -- and journeys with him from grief to faith. With a focus on nature -- the language of flowers, myths about girls who are turned to trees -- and revelations on the natural world that give hope.

Past Praise “Although in style and tone 52 Men differs from either Elizabeth Hardwick’s Sleepless Nights or Renata Adler’s Speedboat, it is, like both of these books, a novel of impressions unified by the author’s sensibility... 52 Men suggests that our identity is at least in part a product of our romantic past... she’s slyly, coolly observant and has transformed her experiences into art. -Amanda Fortini in the Los Angeles Review of Books
