Welcome to my website! I’ve been in the publishing business in a variety of ways for almost 30 years – from newspapers to hardcover books – and I wear a lot of hats: author, journalist, editor, freelance writer, ghostwriter, screenwriter, teacher, public speaker/moderator, co-director of Litquake.

Phew! No wonder I’m so tired!

I’m the author of one book, editor of another, and contributor to half a dozen anthologies. Find information on my books here.

I am a busy freelance writer – contributing monthly pieces to www.SecondAct.com (an offshoot of Entrepreneur.com), Match.com’s Happen magazine, and occasionally to Huffington Post and Women on the Web. See more about my freelancing on my freelance writing page.

I’m called upon often to lend my journalistic and public speaking talents to moderate panels or doing on-stage Q&A’s with overachievers, both at the Commonwealth Club and at the Throckmorton Theater in Mill Valley. This last year I interviewed more than a dozen fascinating people, from Amy Tan to Mireille Guiliano to Martin Cruz Smith to Nora Ephron – and enjoyed every minute.

I have also branched into ghostwriting (my first proposal is making the rounds in New York), and screenwriting, which has been a total joy. And I am now editing and critiquing – from book proposals to novels to college entrance essays. Contact me if you’re interested in my services!
