All my life I have been a Walter Mitty, spending more time in heroic daydreams than the real world. At last I found an outlet writing adventures about audacious women in the 18th Century.
My debut novel Beyond the Cliffs of Kerry was published in 2002, and my latest historical adventure The Pride of the King released in 2011. I am a graduate of the University of Minnesota, and when I am not off tilting windmills, I live and write in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

I am just starting A Passage to India and I am having a hard time picking it up again. It seems dry and I liked A Room with a View. Has anyone else had a similar experience?
