Her debut novel, Some Glad Morning, received excellent reviews from book clubs and readers alike. Timothy Talks to Jesus is her first children’s book.

Irene and her husband, Tony, reside in suburban Huntsville, Alabama. She loves music, writing, reading, and praise and worship.
I love literature. I love reading, writing, and the creative process itself. I especially like writing about the idiosyncrasies that make individuals unique. In the process, everyday people become extraordinary individuals who have stories to tell. Writing fiction is a magical process where a writer sits down with a character and, over the course of time, a story unfolds and characters take on lives of their own. The writer is simply the medium, and I’m blessed to be used as an instrument to tell a story. My prized possession growing up on the West Side of Chicago was my library card.
