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.

Everyone has a favorite author, but since I read so much, I have several. Feehan is on my favorite list and has been for a long time. I love all her series, but I am especially fond of the Game Series. I find myself with two hours of extra reading time today and I am going to go through Power Game again and reread my favorite parts.
Your visit was so meaningful! Evidently one student was scheduled to have a very special meeting to talk tech with someone in our building and turned them down to come to class. They didn’t want class to end (as you noticed). What you don’t know is what was next for them in the schedule. You may guess something not so motivating? Nope, recess. That’s right, they would rather stay in…
I had a wonderful opportunity during the month of November to be part of a fifth grade groups adventure in writing their first novels. They did a spectacular job and oozed enthusiasm. What a great group of students in Kodiak, Alaska. The world is a better place for having such wonderful creative people as part of it.
