In the workforce, I was an advertising copywriter, technical editor, and proofreader. I've also worked as a freelance writer/editor. Now I write just for myself (poems and an occasional incomplete short story). I also dabble in photography and edit my photos in Photoshop. Using Adobe InDesign, I enjoy creating greeting cards for family and friends. After my mother died in 2018, I created a memorial booklet about her, which I sent to those who had known her. In 2019, I created a booklet of some of my poems, photos, and sketches, which I mailed to some of my friends, who said they liked it (of course ).
