About the Author
If someone told me my first book would be about periods, I wouldn't have believed it. I was embarrassed by periods as a kid. As an adult, I only thought they cost me money and caused me to go through wild emotions. But after talking to a friend about how no one discussed menopause, I connected writing with my passion for womanhood. I wanted to create books that encouraged woman to share and support each other through life's wonderful stages so that no woman would be confused or alone. I love to travel, so it is wonderful that I spend my life in two worlds: in Denver with my husband and in Wellington with my family. My husband and I are passionate about organic food and love nothing more than trying new recipes. I am always on the hunt for new ideas, whether they are for my a musical or a new book.
