Welcome, Jill! So glad to have you with us!
Originally from the mountains of Johnson City, Tennessee, Jill Cox Vogt is an award-winning poet and the author of numerous articles about the performing arts.
Her personal motto is: Do good. Play nice. Be kind. While she never set out to live throughout the United States, from Florida to Montana and several places in between, she chalks it up to the gypsy in her soul.
The adventures were worth it, but the gypsy landed in Louisiana where she lives with her husband and dog, and enjoys reading, writing, chocolate, and a yard filled with flowers.
Jill loves to hear from her readers and followers. You can contact her at
Born in a Tennessee commune to an activist mother and an unidentified father, Iris Lyon already feels short-changed. Now, in small-town Twicks Hill, her husband ignores her, her mother stages protests, and her musically gifted daughter grows sneakier by the day. When Iris runs into an old acquaintance, handsome mystery writer Armando Torres, she hopes for friendship to ease her frustrating world. Instead, she must overcome deceptions that crash in on the night she dances with Armando.
Dancing with Armando chronicles three generations of strong and optimistic women, each with hopes and dreams -- and closely guarded secrets. While Sophie and her daughter Iris walk a fine line between love and dejection, granddaughter Heaven shines as a musical prodigy whose curiosity about her missing grandfather sets off a chain of emotions that will change their worlds.
