2025 was a busy year! I won three awards for American Literary Nomads and launched a new novel from northern Maine, Aroostook Dreams, and also a Sedona mystery, Sedona Dragons.
There were also several Explorers Club events, and numerous readings at Arizona schools, while I geared up for bigger events in the Spring.
Having fun at Arizona schools talking about Curiosity!
