About Me
Obsessive reader, writer, dreamer, lover of nature, hopeless romantic, ultimately optimistic cynic. Wife, mother, teacher, tutor, copywriter, and wearer of various other assorted hats.
If I could come back to life as an animal, I would be a
Grizzly. Long naps, fresh berries, long wanders in thick woods.
If I could come back to life as a plant, I would be a
Wildflower. For the freedom, great mountain views, and nobody telling me where to bloom, but fawning over me when I do.
If I could have lunch with any historical or current person, it would be
Mae West and Dorothy Parker for the ladies, Winston Churchill and Mark Twain for the men, all together, over cocktails.
I could best describe my personality as
Predictably manic.
