I’m a writer and the author of two children’s books- Caroline & Rebecca: Rebecca Gets Into Trouble and Caroline & Rebecca’s Day at the Beach.
I was born and raised in Jersey City, where I still live with my husband and dog. I received my BA in English Literature from Rutgers University- Newark. I am an MFA student in Creative Nonfiction at Vermont College of Fine Arts.

I’m not a cat person either!! Nice to meet you 😉
Nice to meet you too! People seem to think all writers are cat lovers. I guess it fits the “crazy” stereotype.
Well, I have a dog that is very happy to lie on the rug next to me while I write (that is, if I have taken him for his regular 2 hour morning walk!!) 😉
My one dog loves to do that too.She loves sit right under my feet and watch me. A cat would never do that!
