Ann's writing journey began while still in grammar school with The Exploding Chicken Noodle Soup, a humorous story inspired by a cafeteria mishap. A lifelong love of storytelling followed.

 

Following a rewarding career in professional and technical communication, she devoted the second half of her career to teaching the art and craft of writing at the collegiate level. 

 

Now, the dream that began with a spilled bowl of soup has come full circle as she embraces a new chapter, writing and sharing stories that make readers laugh, reflect, grow in faith, and savor life’s most unforgettable moments.
