Blood and Mud
June 2020
My debut novel, Blood and Mud, is a girl's heart of darkness set in Mississippi, DC, and El Salvador, The book chronicles the violence, amnesia and fierce love that bind a family together in a multi-generational saga of greed and corruption. It is both a look at the cost of respectability and a tale of redemption, Blood and Mud is available to publish in June 2020.
How often I have lain beneath rain on a strange roof, thinking of home.
William Faulkner
About Me
I've been toddling off to hide with my stack of books since I learned to walk. With a few detours for troublemaking and general mayhem, I've been wandering and reading and writing ever since.
​
From New York City to the rural south, from Madrid to the Central American jungles, from Paris to suburban Maryland, from Pakistan to K Street, I've lived like Tennyson's Ulysses: 'always roaming with a hungry heart'.
