My fiction books are now available at Amazon, B & N & more :)

The Djinn's Dilemma

A Tale of Two Djinns -- 50% of the proceeds are being donated to UNICEF's Schools for Asia initiative. Here's my blog post explaining why.

DEAD: A Ghost Story is available on AMAZON for 99 cents. It's NOT a romance, but a multicultural short.

A Christmas Wish A winter romance with recipes is only 99 cents. All proceeds from the first two weeks of sale go to the Concho Valley Regional Food Bank.

A food enthusiast, writer and culinary instructor with global tastes, I'm raising a multicultural family and I love experimenting in my kitchen. Sometimes I serve hot curries and cold beer, other times steak with curry sauce. I hope you'll join me on my food adventures :)
