About me

I am a poet and artist.  So... writing non-fiction is a hobby.  In this day and age in America, I still find that women aren't supposed to have an opinion about anything outside of the home.  I guess I've never really learned "my place"... 

I have been a poet since about 1979.  I've been published and am in the process of putting out several chapbooks and workbooks.  I have 2 chapbooks of poetry ready (with a 3rd in progress) and 2 workbooks (on grieving and diet behavior modification/education).  I've also just begun to research the geneology of Fitch, Webster, Scott and Schick lines.  It turns out that I may be distantly related to Percy Bysshe Shelley and Alfred Lord Tennyson.

I did my primary art work in portraits in the medium of pencil or ink.  An auto accident prompted a medium change to oil painting and watercolors.

My primary objective in life right now is learning to get beyond physical pain, fatigue and sleep deprivation.  That's what I waste most of my time doing.  My lipids panel and A1c tests are showing a slow progress.

I would like to say thank you in advance to anyone who sends me constructive feedback on my articles.

I chose not to use my real name to prevent or stem harassment and manipulation by a stalker.

There is growing evidence that Cancer and other illnesses and diseases are more likely due to diet and lifestyle than to any genetic cause.  Cancer Our immune system can be dramatically boosted by knowing what to do and not do in our daily lives.  We don’t see the effects of our dietary abuses when we are young.  Poor diet and exercise habits rob us silently and over time. Sleep, stress management, diet and exercise are the four primary keys to staying healthy.  Enough good sleep is critical.  Like a bad diet, long-term sleep deprivation rots the immune ...
