Writing from León, Nicaragua
I write my stories from the historic colonial city of León, Nicaragua. Life here — the people, the culture, and the everyday moments — continues to inspire the stories I tell.
Many of my books are shaped by the warmth of this community and the simple experiences that remind us how kindness, courage, and friendship can change a life.
