I was born in 1944 on the East Coast of the USA and moved to the West Coast when I was about 20. I've spent the rest of my life in the Pacific Northwest and currently live amongst the trees up against the Olympic Mountains on a small farm where I keep a herd of goats for milk, meat and my mental health.

For most of my working life I've made sort of a living as a writer of one kind or another; small business marketing studies, social services research studies, grant writing, grant evaluations, several post graduate texts, an academic publication or two, newsletters, press releases and most recently, community news stories as a freelance writer for two area newspapers.

I've also built a couple of small houses-one of which I live in-very small, and numerous outbuildings and barns. I ran a cabinet shop and did picture framing for seveal years, and some other things to fill in the gaps, like driving cab which was much fun in a smaller, gentler Seattle.
