I am a writer of poetry, a children’s book, and historical fiction for both young adults and those adults who simply enjoy a good story even when the protagonist is a youngster. I've also dabbled in non-fiction nature and science writing but have yet to find an audience. Recently retired after over twenty-six years of teaching English Language Arts, I now call myself a book peddler with on-the-job training in publishing, marketing, and accounting. When my book peddling allows, and I'm not "wordsmithing" or facilitating workshops, I like to hit the links, camp with family, travel abroad, have coffee (or other libations) with friends, and spoil my grandchildren. You can find me in my writing cottage on a cattle ranch near White Butte Creek on the plains of Northeastern Colorado.
