About Me

Self-Portrait

The basics: I'm a writer and an artist, although I'll turn my hand to anything that requires a creative mind and/or skillset. The sign in my studio reads: Any Craft Will Do. I'm a gypsy soul and have wandered many places in my life. Now that I've settled down, it's only my mind that wanders... and that is okay.

Where I've settled is Snohomish, WA, nestled between the beautiful Cascade foothills and Puget Sound. I'm fortunate to have the love and support of my wonderful mate, Steve.

And as if you can't gather enough other information by simply reading my blog, I will answer the questions set forth by the famous Bernard Pivot.
