Impossible (Nancy's new novel, September, 2008)

"From the sting of my curse she can never be free


Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme


Unless she unravels my riddlings three


She will be a true love of mine."

Welcome & About This Site

Welcome, gentle readers.

Stephen King, in On Writing, says he likes hanging around with other writers because “we never ask one another where we get our ideas. We know we don't know.” That makes me laugh, because it's true—the question I dread most is: “Where do you get your ideas?” My answer to that changes daily, and all the different answers are true. And not.

So, although you won't find the answer to “where do you get your ideas?” on this web site, you'll find lots of other stuff, including information on my books, an exhibit of different cover designs and my truthful opinions about them, and biographical information with links to interviews.

If you're a reader looking for information about me or my books, you've come to the right place; just click on the links in the menu at the left.

If you're doing a project for school on one of my books and need author information, go read the interviews under “About Nancy.”

If you're a teacher or librarian and need teacher's guides, book talks, and speaking information, go to “For Teachers & Librarians."

If you're a writer, God help you—and take a look at “For Writers.”

Thanks for visiting, and for your interest.
