I worked as a feature journalist for seventeen years, then returned to university, receiving an MFA in Creative Writing. Since then I have written in novel form, hoping someday to return to the simplicity and essence of spirit writing in poetry.
I grew up outside Philadelphia, attended schools in Vancouver, Montreal, Switzerland, Ireland, and Scotland, as well as the United States. As you can see, I love the international flavors of foods so to speak!
I live in Maine, having raised four children. I work with special needs adults and children, and write articles for a local paper. I love nature, gathering wild foods, berries, blossoms, espousing the permaculture movement of using local foods. I play fiddle, lyre, and piano. We live in a small university town, where writers, painters, and music abound.view less
