In 2011, my first book, a sassy little, heart-felt memoir called ‘Laughing Through A Second Pregnancy’ was published by Black Moss Press.
In 2013, I was the guest editor for a collection of poetry entitled, ‘Whisky Sour City’, published by Black Moss Press.
In 2014, we launched my first collection of poetry, ‘I Am That Woman’ (Black Moss Press). It has since gone into his fourth printing.
In October 2016, Black Moss Press will be publishing a second collection of my poetry!!!
