“You have to write the book that wants to be written. And if the book will be too difficult for grown-ups, then you write it for children.”

-Madeleine L’Engle

I am actively seeking representation for my middle grade historical novel, DOWNWIND FROM CAMELOT.

Set in the late 1960’s in a small Northwest mill town, it follows Judy, a precocious, hot-tempered 12-year-old as she tries to find a foothold as the youngest in a large, zany family. When Judy stumbles into the local theater, she sees the opening scene from the latest Hollywood smash-hit, Camelot. Against all odds , Judy sets out to create a fairytale life.

In addition to middle grade novels, both historical and contemporary, I write picture books. Please contact me if you would like to know more!
