: About Me

The destiny of the world is determined
less by the battles that are lost and won
than by the stories it loves and believes in.
~~~Harold Goddard

ABOUT ME:

I have been a writer ever since I can remember.
My roots are in a large family in Upstate NY,
but I have lived in Florida longer now than my
entire coming-of-age period in my hometown.
My interests are varied and global.
I adore cultural diversity, nature's dramatic
spirit and all that relates to earth and
the environment.
I do constantly inform myself with myth,
legend, and the magic that surrounds us in
everyday life. Strong topics for me include
stones, herbs, and the Tarot.
I have an artistic ability that extends into
drawing and painting. I hope to someday combine
my creative outlets and illustrate my own
children's series.
I am a solitary Pagan following a Celtic path
I strongly believe in spiritual tolerance
and seek to eliminate ignorance,
one tiny ripple at a time.

The beluga whale is my totem;
the trees are my guides...and
the world is my wonder-unfolding
her magic before my eyes.
