A Brooklynite by way of Cali, I have lived and loved on the east coast for over fourteen years. Fancying myself the spiritual love child of the late great Katharine Hepburn and the marvellously forward thinking James Baldwin, I strive to be true to my own vision and voice. It's not always easy or clear, but what is?!

I usually write long, time destroying works of historical fiction, poetry and short stories. Mourning Becomes Her is my first foray into the world of contemporary literary fiction. It was a labor of love, a tango with two characters that I hope to be like when I grow up.

I love my dog, Zora, New York City (including the boros, of course) and my shoes. In that order! 

I am a proud member of the Harlem Writers Guild!
