Taylor Manning

A petite, voluptuous attorney and linguist, Taylor divides her time between her home in an exclusive Washington, D.C., suburb and a small, but exquisitely tasteful one-room chalet on the Guadalupe River in the Texas Hill Country.

Taylor, born in a year in the last century she refuses to disclose, is a world traveler and bon-vivant, renaissance woman and dilettante. Her interests include amateur herpetology, decoupage, poetry, horses and rats. It's almost as though she's more than one person.

Perfect mother to five perfect children, she's currently married to a perfect husband, a tall, chocolate-eyed gourmet cook. (Thank heaven!)

Humble and lovable, Taylor hopes you enjoy her stories
