Virginia’s love of writing began in middle school when her teacher read one of her stories aloud, leaving her too shy to watch until she heard sniffles from her classmates. In that moment, she realized the power of words and knew she wanted to be a writer. She strives to combine her understanding of emotions and human behavior with her writing, creating stories that resonate deeply with readers of all ages.
“I am still learning.”

Virginia believes the best moments of our lives happen when our bodies and minds are stretched to new limits in our efforts to accomplish something difficult and worthwhile. In addition to her almost daily writing practice, she walks her adorable dog, Sammy, participates in Pilates classes and practices yoga several times each week. Some of her best ideas find their way to her on her yoga mat.
“Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.”
