Dottie scratched out her first attempts at fiction as a kid transfixed by the books she read . . . Curious George and Nancy Drew, Gone with the Wind and Little Women . . . all those lazy summer days on the front porch swing of her small-town, Midwestern home.
When not managing the interlibrary loan department at a college, Dottie contributes to multiple newspapers and magazines. Her short stories and non-fiction pieces have won many awards.
Where the Stars Cross is her first novel.
