I was raised in Unicoi County, surrounded by the traditions and dialect of the area. I embraced the regional stories, mountain views, culture-except sweet tea and unannounced visits-and sought to correct the misconceptions about the local people and the town stories that turned into rumors.

I reside in Erwin, Tennessee, with my children and husband. I have hiked the section of the Appalachian Trail near my home, visited many of the caves and other mountain trails in the area, and am fascinated by their enigmatic appeal.

I like reading, writing, and any reasonable music. Most of all, I enjoy sharing stories and adventures with my children and making memories through their experiences.
