A few personal items might be helpful to know about me. First, this is what I look like:
Clearly, I qualify as une femme d’un certain age–and that’s all I’m going to say about THAT. I’m also widowed, divorced and now happily single.
I’ve been a freelance writer for many years; I’ve written for newspapers, magazines, and corporations. My main corporate squeeze is Herman Miller, the office furniture manufacturer. Great company. See the Work page for a more straightlaced presentation of my professional experience. (Full disclosure: I hate reading other writers’ resumes. I always feel like a chump.)
I have six awesome children who are spread all over the country. Two amazing grandchildren who absolutely delight me.
I’m a true believer of the dyed-in-the-wool, bred-in-the-bone Roman Catholic persuasion. Given my present adventure, I’m finding that a robust faith life is no longer optional. It’s essential.
