Writer Statement

I want to share the stories that matter to me - that's the long and short of my creative motivation. I tell stories about outsiders facing adversity, rooted in an authentic sense of time and place. My style is deeply optimistic but unflinching in it's presentation of difficult themes. I suppose it's happy-sad - because that's life, right?
