I’ve been writing off and on for twenty years–my first attempts were two plays, two screenplays, and two short stories (hmmm- not sure of the significance of that!). I was a reporter for a local newspaper (and also wrote a variety of columns). I’m proud of my first published book, From Prompting to Shaping to Letting Go, and I look forward to the publication of my first novel, Elanora and the Salt Marsh Mystery.

Henry David Thoreau
