Story Behind the Book
Each of my novels is a piece of my heart. Where Yesterday Lives was my first-ever novel, and as such it is somewhat autobiographical. The childhood story of Ellen Barrett, her love for her parents and siblings, is my storythough her current story and struggles are fictional. On Every Side sheds light on the struggle for religious freedom in todays climate; something I am passionate about. Finally, When Joy Came to Stay is the story of one womans battle against depression and the secrets of her past.
