About me

Location El Dorado Hills, California
Introduction I retired as a technical writer years ago. Since then I've spent my time reading, writing, rabble-rousing and raising my two orphaned grandsons. Because they are now grown,I still spend time reading, writing, quilting, and in advocacy for many causes. Don't get me started on politics. My day-to-day life is fairly quiet, but my fantasy life is soaring, and I take mental excursions almost as good as the real thing.
Interests Reading, writing, quilting, good conversation, good food, road trips
Favorite Music Classical, opera, Gregorian chants, Eastern European women's choruses, Broadway musicals, film soundtracks
Favorite Books Novels by Bowles, Updike, Bellow, Franzen, Tan, Kingsolver. Anything by Anne Lamott. Viktor Frankl's Man's Search For Meaning.
