| Ottawa, Ontario, Canada |
| I am semi-retired, married and reside in Ottawa, Canada. I have returned to writing after a long absense. Having extra time on my hands allows for reflection and revision. I was born in the central prairie region of Canada -- Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Endless sky, plains and highways left plenty of room for imagination. |
| There are a lot of wierd things going on in my brain. Occasionally, I let some of them out. Reader, beware! |
| I have tried many styles of writing with more or less success. You be the judge... please! |
| I volunteer with the Shepherds of Good Hope, a homeless shelter providing meals, clothing and a place to sleep for those in need. |
