i have a passion for a 

story well told

Me, at about age 4

Among my favorite books are Gilead by Marilynne Robinson, The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake by Aimee Bender, and Tuck Everlasting by Natalie Babbitt. (Read them all, then let's chat!) 
 
This site now contains the archives of YoungMarriedMom.com, where I wrote about my early years of motherhood from 2010-2014, and my blog on craft, What I Learned While Writing a Novel, which was formerly a separate Wordpress blog.
