As a 5th-born native born Wyomingite, and raised in the beautiful Pacific NW, I've experienced the stories of many, tasted the joy and the pain, been given small lives to enfold, and have risen from the flames again and again only to experience even more.  I've been writing since the age of 8, when I began putting my thoughts into prose poetry and storing it in an old, worn Pee Chee.  Over the years I have written even more prose, several short stories, and a limited amount of metered poetry.

Through writing I have found a profound sense of being all the more whole, of having an ability toput words to my heart, to tell simple stories that speak so much.  I write for myself, for the release it gives me.  It frees me and speaks as only I can speak.  My story is mine alone, but I will share it if you will only take the time to hear.
