I am a Native American freelance writer/photographer
Living in the Northwoods of Wisconsin. I write on a variety of topics generally associated within the Native community but of interest to many politically, philosophically, spiritually, historically etc.

My photography is most generally in the nature, wildlife and scenic area but delve into the photo-ethnology field as well. Sometimes words and images come together to compliment each other and other times have nothing to do with the other. But when they do as they say, the rest is pure nectar!

In addition to my endeavors in the arts, I am also an accomplished horseman and breed and train American Quarter horses and Saddlebreds. Feel free to contact me.

It was more like the cool streams water rolling down my body morphed right back into hot beads of sweat as soon as I turned the tap off.

Funny thing, nights like this when sleep won't come You lay there trying to decide if the sheet was helping or making it worse. You play yo yo with it, pulling it up and kicking it back off. You pull it up ...
