About the Author
After writing research articles for 30 years, I have started writing fiction. It’s the realization of a lifelong dream! I was a professor of Educational Psychology at the University of Oklahoma for 28 years. My research focused on reading comprehension, technology in learning, and motivation to learn. Although academic writing is different from writing fiction, in both cases, one must craft a compelling story to either explain data or reveal a work of imagination. I hope I find an audience who will enjoy my stories. I live in Santa Fe, New Mexico, with my husband, two cats, and one dog.
