Influences

life experiences: family challenges, exposure to progressive parenting theories, social justice background, progressive/alternative educational experiences, cottaging roots

writing: I read anything and everything: all styles/all genres. My writing is always evolving as I expose myself to new ideas and as I challenge myself to try new things as a writer.

Upcoming Works

I am revising two of my earlier books.

I have all kinds of ideas in the works for projects to develop after the revisions. An exciting new chapter will begin for me in 2009.
