Hi, I’m Stephanie.

I’ve spent more than three decades making a living with words. These days, I’m using them to explore a more personal question: How do we build a life we love after the life we planned disappears? I write about loss, reinvention, and the unexpected ways we find our way back to ourselves. Fair warning: it involves Paris, an improv stage, and more otters than you’d expect. 

As Seen In

 

Stephanie is the kind of writer editors wish they could clone. I’ve had the pleasure of working with her for over five years at two different publications. She never misses a deadline, files clean copy that needs only the lightest of edits and is an endless fountain of fresh and interesting ideas, and to top it all off her stories consistently garner some of the highest traffic.
