The Author
After thirty-six years of putting my vision of becoming an author on hold, I have finally taken the plunge! Writing was always my passion and at long last I am living the dream.
My first children’s book “Donald and the New Baby” has recently been chosen for publication and I look forward to the process that will take me through editing, illustration, cover design and printing! My publicist will be scheduling PA’s for me, complete with book signings and I’ll even get to read my story to children in books stores all around the country. I can’t wait.
I am VERY happy about my children’s book but make no mistake, my long term goal is to become a published novelist. I am delighted to report that I have almost completed my very first novel, “Unforgettable (Trudy’s Story)” which is based on the remarkable true-life accounts of my own mother. The book is filled with drama, laughter, tragedy and some pretty unbelievable surprises. Anyone who knew her could vouch for that fact that she was one incredible lady with a riveting story. I am looking forward to sharing that story with the world.
I would like to use this space to thank you for taking the time to read my blog. I hope you enjoy it!

So excited to read the new novel! Also, I’m looking so forward to your first book signing and reading! It will be here before you know it!! I’m honored to be your editor!
Noel, I know we’ve only had phone and email contact so far, but I am usually a pretty good judge of character… you seem like a very special person and you certainly made me feel as if I were. I am looking forward to working together with you on many projects to come! It’s great to have you in my corner.
