With great fondness, I remember the stories my older sister told me on cold winter nights as we snuggled under the covers in our warm bed. These childhood memories awakened the storyteller residing within me. Having lived in a number of countries and cultures for extended periods of time, this rich lifetime of adventure has set the stage for my imagination. The stories are woven from experiences with children, cultures, and teachings from the inner Spirit. Each story set in a different culture, is full of mystery, and offers an important lesson in living. Now writing from our country home in Southern Spain, I am now completing a series of stories to stimulate the imagination of the reader: The Gypsy Doll, The Treasure Box, The Door in the Garden Wall, The Crystal Cage.
