Since I was a child, I have loved to write. My first rejection letter came in August 1970, from Mademoiselle magazine. Since then, thankfully, I have had more acceptances than rejections. During the eight years I wrote for Beaufort Lifestyle and her sister magazines, in 54 issues my portfolio consisted of 119 profiles of people/stories, 16 restaurant profiles, and 20 advertorials.
I have written for other print publications and on-line websites listed below. I have also written a speech for the Mayor of Wandsworth, London, UK which was delivered at a women's empowerment conference.
I am currently an Associate Editor for Southern Literary Review.
Probably what is dearest to my heart in the world of writing, is the inclusion of an interview I was joyful to experience with Pat Conroy, in the book A Lowcountry Heart. My greatest accomplishments in life are my daughter, Elizabeth, and my son, Alexander.
