After a successful career as a marriage and family therapist in Charleston, South Carolina, Susan answered her long- standing call to writing and moved to Asheville, North Carolina with her two daughters. Susan simplified her life and took part-time jobs in order to focus the main portion of her day on writing. In addition to writing fiction, she did dream work with a Jungian analyst and began to paint with acrylics.
Susan combines her Appalachian roots with her life-long spiritual exploration and a deep reverence for wilderness and wildness. She has written five books for children and is currently working on her second novel for adults.
