The Last Elf

Overview

When little Rosemary finds a beautiful, magical-looking flower hidden away in her grandmother’s dresser, she sets out to explore the woods near her home to find another like it. What she finds instead is Meriandor the Elf. Meriandor is stranded here on earth and needs Rosemary’s help to get back to Elvenhome in the stars where his family lives. Rosemary is sort of stranded, too. Her parents are getting a divorce and she has decided to stay at her grandparents’ house, instead of going home. The Last Elf is the story of how Rosemary and Meriandor become good friends and help each other to get back to where they each belong.

About the Author

After a number of times hearing me sigh and say, "This book is terrible. I could write something better," my husband said, "Then do it!" I took the dare and after years of writing poetry and children's stories as a hobby, I sat down to write a novel.
A cozy, little mystery seemed right. The result is Roses and Daisies and Death, Oh My! an off-beat mystery that draws on a lifetime spent in suburban Washington DC, the wonderful, slightly eccentric people I grew up with, and the odd assortment of pets I've had over the years.
I grew up in Washington DC and College Park, MD with four sisters and one brother. I worked part-time for the most part while we raised our children and am now retired.
I live with my husband, Tom, in Bowie Maryland. In addition to writing, I enjoy time with my children, grandchildren and my large extended family. I like to travel when I can, refurbish old furniture, and collect family stories and recipes for the 'family cookbook.' I love historic homes and am a docent at Riversdale Mansion in Riverdale, MD.
