I am a Canadian woman who retired from teaching six years ago. I now consider writing and the related work it entails as my career.
I am in the on-going process of developing a website with my business partner, Richard Doiron (Thoreau47 on AP), a poet, novelist, and biographer of considerable note whose support and encouragement has been instrumental in my writing anything at all, let alone being published. Blogs have recently been added to this site.

I have a number of e-books, available on our website:
http://www.spiritsinpeace.com/
I also have three print books. The first, entitled Clean And Simple Stones, is a collection of free verse, available through Lulu Publishing at the following link:

My second print book is a collection of etherees in various forms, permutations, and combinations. Those of you who are familiar with my writing know that I like to experiment with these. My World Of Etherees is also available on Lulu as follows:

My third book, My Ink Exposed, is an eclectic collection consisting of free verse, etherees, sijos, and Japanese forms such as haiku and tanka. It is available at the following Lulu link:

I don’t always know where my writing comes from, but I do know that each poem s a gift. I will not demean my work in any way, shape, or form. Without authenticity, what else is there?
