--LadyD found on Amazon.com

Welcome and thank you for visiting!

I hope you enjoyed reading my award winning novel, To Live and Die for Dance, where I show readers of all ages the level of work and commitment required of  aspiring young dancers determined to have “their shot” on the dance stage. 
The people whose lives I bring you have customs, backgrounds and social mores where food and holiday rituals are important and fun to shareVisit Culinary Treats to learn some of them. 
I hope my characters' stories entertain or touch you. If something you didn’t know comes to light through their lives then I am doubly gratified.
