Welcome to my website! I created this site to share my love of writing and my love of the South Carolina Lowcountry. I've included some of my pieces about Charleston, a list of my favorite places to visit in the Lowcountry and essential recipes that remind me of home and living in the South.
Why write stories set in the South Carolina Lowcountry?
The Lowcountry is charmingly picturesque and has a colorful history. No other place on earth duplicates the Lowcountry's graceful physical and spiritual characteristics. The arms of ancient oaks that date back 1500 years are draped with Spanish moss, making them look like elegant matriarchs with gray shawls. Much of the ground is wet with lush green foliage and palmetto trees. Sandlappers and white-tail deer decorate that land. But the thing that makes this place special is its people. Being born and raised in this aesthetically unique place endows a person with manners and sensibilities. Life slows down here where Sundays are still reserved for worship with family and friends and for dinner with sweet tea and fried chicken.
