I love telling stories, whether they're stories from my own life, fictional stories written for own my children, or poems for young readers. My hope, in every written endeavor, is to encourage readers to look up toward the Author of this story, the one we're living in.

I am co-editor of the book Wild Things & Castles in the Sky: A Guide to Choosing the Best Books for Children and a regular contributor to Story Warren. You can find my work at Little Book, Big Story, where I review children’s books, or at my Substack, The Setting, where I write about everything else.

You can read a few samples of my work below.
