“Writing should be a window into the story”

The title? It’s a closely guarded secret!

After all, I write in the thriller and suspense genre.

I’m drawn to stories about people, especially women and girls, who find the will to stand up for themselves in the face of danger.

In my technology writing, I cut through material that is generic and bloated, and I aspire to the same with the pace of my fiction. Through compelling stories, complex plots, and unexpected twists, I’m honing my craft to keep my readers turning pages.

I have spent 25 years in technology marketing, figuring out how to convey complex information to busy people in digestible ways. In the age of digital attention spans lasting about 7 seconds, immediate engagement is critical. I believe that a thoughtful writer and a relentlessly efficient editor must go hand in hand.

Now, as I dedicate more of my time and attention to hooking readers of fiction, I am applying the same principle. My writing must justify the investment of the reader’s time, whether the pay-off is measured in information or entertainment.
