I am a May, 2012 graduate of Butler University’s MFA in Creative Writing (Prose). http://www.butler.edu/mfa-writing/

I am seeking representation for my thesis novel, “In Oprah’s Wake.” It is the story of Kip Tierney and his journey to regain the love of his life through the magical guidance of Oprah Winfrey. “Funny and farcical.” It is the first in a series of books that combine magical realism and comedy.

The second in the series, “Bigfoot: A Love Story” is in revision.

I currently teach advanced composition and creative writing at Indiana State University. When I’m not writing or grading, I am an active volunteer with the Terre Haute Humane Society. I live with my husband and my three rescue dogs.
