HELLO!.png

I'm Manda, a writer, note-taker, scribbler, scribe, creator, and all-around wordworker. I also have a vintage home goods shop called 51 Summers, as well as an Instagram page devoted to residential architecture.

 

Thanks for stopping by!

NOW AVAILABLE!

I contributed a short story to a new anthology called The Second Chance Romance Club: An Anthology of Love Stories — available now as a free e-book. (Paperback is available for those who prefer books they can sniff and dog-ear.)

​

My story — called “Waiting for That Feeling” — is a fun, fast read involving canceled flights, hot flashes, and risk management. I hope you'll read and enjoy it!
