My Writing Life

I have spent years writing for blogs, brands, clients, campaigns, publications, and projects of all kinds. For a long time, I made a living writing about other people’s stories. Eventually, I realized there were stories of my own that had been waiting patiently for their turn.

That led me to fiction, including my romantic suspense novella series, Androscoggin After Dark. Set in the small towns and shadowed landscapes of northern New Hampshire, the series blends mystery, romance, old secrets, complicated characters, and the pull of a river that never really lets anything go.

You can find my books on my Amazon Author Page, browse my books page, or follow the full series at AndroscogginAfterDark.com.

Life on the Homestead

I’m also co-founder of Legacy Acres at Stearns Brook Farm in northern New Hampshire. My life is rooted in family land, rural resilience, and the belief that we can honor where we came from while still becoming someone entirely new.

Alongside writing and consulting, our days often include chickens, ducks, quail, rabbits, bees, garden plans, eggs, projects, mud, sawdust, feed bags, and at least one thing that did not go according to plan.

Homesteading has taught me patience, resilience, humor, and the importance of celebrating small wins. It has also given me a deeper connection to the land, my family history, and the kind of rural life that continues to inspire both my nonfiction writing and my fiction.

Work, Curiosity, and Real Life

I’ve spent more than two decades working across research, data analysis, project management, marketing, public relations, influencer strategy, and consulting. I understand both the creative side of storytelling and the analytical side of making information useful.

That balance shows up in a lot of what I do here — whether I’m writing about health, business, parenting adult children, personal reinvention, homesteading, books, or building something meaningful from the ground up.

Professionally, I’m drawn to the place where words and data meet — where stories can be supported by evidence, and information can be made useful, clear, and human.

Why I Write

Some posts are practical. Some are personal. Some are funny. Some are the kind of thing I write because someone else might be quietly living through the same thing and needs to feel less alone.

At my core, I believe in using our stories well. Not perfectly. Not performatively. Honestly.

I believe women are allowed to evolve. I believe midlife can be a beginning, not a breakdown. I believe healing is rarely linear. I believe rural women, caregivers, mothers, grandmothers, entrepreneurs, and late bloomers deserve to see themselves reflected online.

And I believe there is power in telling the truth with both softness and backbone.
