Welcome - I'm Karen and I am so happy you stopped by!
In a nutshell:
- Writer, photographer, homebody, and perpetual overthinker…
- Writing helps unearth my thoughts
- Yoga, my favorite exercise, helps me let them go
- I don’t believe in boredom – there are worlds to explore!
- I used to dream of being a writer, dietician, music teacher, or architect (after ballerina and princess, of course)
- In my former career, I was a budget analyst (?!?!?)
- I’m happiest when I’m creating – writing, taking photos, or playing in my art journal
- But I’m also an accomplished couch potato – curling up with a good book and cup of tea
I live in Vermont’s beautiful Green Mountains (the setting for my mystery series!) with my husband, Greg, and incorrigible Labrador retriever, Chessie. It wasn’t until leaving my former life, buried beneath spreadsheets at an urban university, that I began my adventure of writing a mystery novel – and what an adventure it has become!
Join me as I share stories of writing, photography, and navigating the world of publishing – and all the lessons learned along the way – there is always so much to learn.
