Winning With Words

I'm a communications nerd. I spent my first career ushering small businesses through the deluge of innovative communications tools and strategies. Words matter. Stories matter. I delighted in using the right message on the right platform to launch entrepreneurial successes.

I'm starting a new life chapter writing folksy stories with potent messages and a few gut wrenching twists. Because, that's life.

Nonfiction:
  • Please See Me - Breathing Water at the Bottom of the Ocean - my realization that a healthy brain is incapable of understanding a suicidal brain. 
  • Herstry.com - The Unbearably Long List of Joys - the double edged sword of joy after grief. And the fun of a crazy smart son.
  • Mindwise.org - How To Show Up and Stay Strong Supporting a Grieving Family - an article published on Mindwise.org, a non-profit providing suicide prevention and postvention training to grade schools, universities, mental health professionals, employers, cities and states.
  • Common Ground Newsletter - A periodic newsletter looking for ways to bring our divided country back together.
  • ​What if 2020 wasn’t the worst year of your life?
    What if 2019 was so bad you welcomed the pain of the apocalyptic pandemic year like a child welcomes the wall smashing against her head as a way to cover the hurt?
    ​

​Fiction:
  • TulipTree Press - Choices, a fictional work based on accompanying a friend through an angry line of protestors to receive an abortion published in TulipTree Review Spring/Summer 2020 issue #8 Wild Women.
  • You Are Fierce - my salacious ode to the challenges of regular exercise.
  • Widow Warriors - a poem inspired by the women who brave together the solitary path of surviving suicide.
