writing Darcy
Darcy , my first published novel, was inspired by a friend's impressions of dating in post war England, of desire and intimacy within a severely constrained situation.
Gretial Taan, my second published book, was inspired by two very wonderful teachers, an astrophysicist and a shaman. Part of it is autobiographical and tells relates experiences as a pilgrim and journeyer.
Mrs. Knightley's Loyalty: I continue to write - soon I will publish another JAFF story based on Emma,
Droog: book 2 and 3 of the Cosmic Trails continue the adventures of Gretial Taan and her buddy Droog.
my Writing
I have always been a writer. Most of my life, I have been a poet. Occasionally, I have earned lunch money publishing poetry. I write for fun, even though it is hard work. The three Cauldrons of inspiration fill my belly and spill.

my Perspective
Writing allows me to shift my perspective. So does walking in the woods, talking to a friend, being alone in silences for a long time, reading a good book.
Teaching, healing, listening. They are all part of it.
my Muses
I have a constant longing to enter different worlds and inhabit other lives... to see with fresh eyes.
With gratitude for the many teachers.
