"A book is a gift you can open again and again."

After an early career in corporate journalism, Terri landed on once-quaint Anna Maria Island as mom of an Old Florida mom 'n' pop motel. That's where she fell in love with the state, her people and her history.  

Terri has published two Florida novels: When Not If and When Sun Sets. Both mix local history with our hero Stormy's adventures. She also co-authored a kid's book and a memoir, A Little Love Story Can Change Your Life. 

Currently, Terri writes for Bradenton Magazine and Sixty & Me, and she's working on her next novel: working title, Rural Route Two.
