This first novel introduces you to each group of characters, including twins Kali and Jordan who were separated at birth and reunite at age twenty, talented gymnasts Maddy and April who are adjusting to a move to a new city, and sisters Niki, Andy, Erica, Sunny and Shauna, who turn their boarding school upside down in search of fun.

By the end of 1993, everyone has surprises in store for everyone else when it comes to their futures.

4. Brookline University: Freshman Year 
ISBN: 978-0-9809-6283-3
Another series story I began writing in 1998 and finished in 2005. It was aimed at an older crowd than SC and focused on three best friends who grew up in foster care as they begin university. Freshman Year follows the girls as they adjust to university life, rush the sororities at their school, deal with personal tragedy and spend the summer working in Florida. This book is available on Amazon.com for the same cost as it is available on Lulu.com

Sophomore Year finds the girls on the other side of sorority rush. In addition to school and fun, they have to deal with relationships and their fall out before going back home during the summer to find all hasn't changed in Seattle. I am currently editing this book, with hopes to publish it in 2010.

6. Brookline University: Junior Year
The girls are rush counselors and getting little sisters, dealing with secret relationships and campus scares, and examining their past on a Spring Break trip that hits close to home. With everyone changing majors and keeping secrets, Junior Year comes to a screeching halt when the summer brings surprises, good and bad. This book is still in need of editing before publication.

7. Brookline University: Senior Year
Their last year at Brookline U sees Joy, Libby and Angel planning their futures, while still dealing with school, friends and relationships. By the end of the school year, everyone's lives are ready to change forever. This book is still in need of editing before publication.

8. Death Game
I consider this the first novel I wrote, since the Sandy Cove and Brookline University series were written as serialized stories and not novels. Death Game was written for the 2002 National Novel Writing Month and took me 22 days to reach 50,000 words. It features Joy Morrison three years after college graduation when she is accused of a crime while serving in the Air Force.

9. UNSUB

My second Nano novel which I finished in 9 days, it focused on Kali Macnaghten from the Sandy Cove series, about four or five years into the future from when Sandy Cove ended. She has returned to Vancouver and gets involved in a murder investigation that puts her sister Jessy at risk. It has never appeared online.

10. 'Tis The Season

My third Nano novel, finished in 13 days. It focuses on college freshman Cayla Stroud who tries to reconnect with her twin sister while adjusting to becoming an apprentice dancer in a ballet company with her best friend Firenza, and trying to catch the eye of a university hockey player named Cam, who has demons in his own past. It's a YA novel and hasn't appeared online.

11. In The System

It was my 2005 Nano novel and I finished 50,000 words in 9 days, but the novel itself wasn't done until 28 days. It was a prequel to Brookline University, focusing on Joy, Libby and Angel when they were living in foster care in Seattle. It takes place from 1984 to 1987.

12. Trinity

My 2006 Nano novel which I finished in 7 days. It is what I call "the sequel to the prequel," as it directly continues from In The System. The girls deal with being moved to a new group home, with some adjusting better than others. This novel follows them as they try to decide what to do about their futures and if they can even get out of their situation.

13. L.A. Blue

My 2007 Nano novel was finished in 17 days. It is an adaptation of my 2007 Script Frenzy screenplay. Divorced friends Nick Benson and Toby Russell travel to Los Angeles and pick up suicidal hitchhiker May Stewart on the way, and she begins to help them achieve new lives as she works on ending her own.

14. La Muerta

Written for Nano 2008, this is a 60,000 word that I am currently re-writing to add in another point of view. It follows Lupe, a young woman from Mexico, as she escapes from a ruthless crime lord and ends up in the hands of a Fort Worth criminal who may be her only way to freedom. 

15. Storm Warning 1 

A two-novel series that is currently being re-written. It's a crime/adventure/romance series.

16. Storm Warning 2 

 A two-novel series that is currently being re-written. It's a crime/adventure/romance series.

I have technically written 17 novels, as I ghostwrote a draft novel for hire (I don't own the rights). I usually write a novel per year during Nanowrimo.

NOVELLAS

1. Melissa Corliss
A 27,000 word novella written in the mid 1990s. Told from the first person point of view of a young street kid named Vinni and the prostitute she befriends. A cop character in this novel is a main character in UNSUB. I am considering expanding it into a full length novel and editing it. It's the only thing I've written that's been in first person point of view and I'm not sure I'd keep it. The title isn't good enough either, it's a working title of sorts.

2. Middle Ground
A 43,000 word fan fiction novella, it's the only long fiction I've written with a mix of POVs - this one uses 1st person and 3rd person. This is no longer online and I have no plans for it.

SCREENPLAYS

1. L.A. Blue
Written for Script Frenzy in June 2007, I finished the 20,000 word screenplay in 9 days. It's about two divorced 40-something guys who are on a road trip to Los Angeles when they pick up a female hitchhiker who begins to change their lives while she's on the road to ending her own.

2. La Muerta
I am currently working on adapting La Muerta into a full-length screenplay.
