These are the books and anthologies in which my work has appeared.
I’m working hard to keep this page growing.
Gary and I are both life-long animal lovers, so animals are a common theme when we write for contests. These are some of our favorites. We hope you enjoy them.

Can Timmy help him escape before his mother finds out? | Purchase on Amazon
A Rhyme for Every Season (Poetry Collection)
A collection of poems drawn from the everyday experiences of life, and the emotions evoked by those experiences. Arranged in a seasonal order, the emotions reflected in the poems echo the emotions of the different seasons. The poems include cinquains, haiku, luc bat, reverse etheree, sonnets, couplets, as well as free verse. The collection offers a glimpse at a life lived fully through every season. Interesting note: The cover photo is a photograph I took when my husband and I visited Smoky Mountain National Park in Tennessee. Purchase on Amazon
