All About Me

Evidently I was born, although I do not remember the party. Stories indicate I had a pink carnation in the nursery that I greatly admired. I was one of the lucky ones. I have a wonderful family, filled with curiosity, acceptance and more than our fair share of laughter. We have

our tragedies and trials, but somehow, we usually manage to band together and face them with as much strength as possible.

My husband and I have been together for… let’s say we met in 1983. He is not only my companion and friend, but also the guardian of my imagination. I imagine I am not easy to live with on a regular basis, especially because I am not always present where my feet are, but I also tend to babble and talk to my characters as I am plotting. Yes, he deserves a medal.

For thirty years, I was the teacher in a classroom. It was an experience I would never give up and I hope I made a difference for those students, but underneath the apple crusted desk, I was always a writer, an observer and a student of human behavior and responses. My imagination tends to fly in a million directions and it takes a cage to keep it focused.

Welcome to my world of NewEarth. I hope you enjoy the people, the setting and the story. Sign up for my newsletter to find out more about me and the world I created.

If you are looking for an outstanding cup of tea, fetch yourself a big mug and put the kettle on. Cut up and orange and take a big meaty slice and juice part of it in the cup and throw in the rind, it adds flavor to the rest. Then add some crystallized ginger to the cup. Then a constant comment tea bag. I think Bigelow does a good job,…

Truffles

Chocolate is a food group that should be exempt from calculation on diets. Let me start with that qualifier and explain that I watch my cholesterol and saturated fats very carefully, but chocolate is allowable in small doses. That being said, Linder makes a really good truffle. They do an exceptional job with strawberries and cream and I say this with a deep and abiding preference for dark chocolate. However…
