About Me


I reached a milestone when I celebrated my 75th birthday with the publication of my first book. I repeated that accomplishment for my 77th birthday with my second book.  My early years were lived in the upstairs two bedrooms of a house; therefore, we had no kitchen. At the direction of my mother I married while still in high school. By the time I was 23 our family consisted of three daughters. A few years later I became a single mom. Life was a rollercoaster with no time or energy to consider writing anything.

Then I met the love of my life. We shared many adventures, living a full life. After 35 years, the word cancer changed that. My beloved experienced three years of poking, testing and drugs with toxic side effects. Yet we continued to laugh and love. As I face my new normal, I look ahead to different types of adventures. I’ve already traveled to Israel twice.

Just give me time. Grandma Moses was 78 when she blossomed.


I would love to hear from you. My email is writerjoy@gmail.com.
