About me

GenderFemale
LocationModesto, California, United States
IntroductionTeaching English at Modesto Junior College doesn't leave much time for the activities that got me here -- reading, writing and research. I like the Central Valley--the orchards, the waterways, the people.
InterestsI spend all my time (when I'm not working) with my little girl...there's nothing else I'd rather do.
Favorite moviesToo many to name...recent favorites are Tarnation, Fog of War, American Movie, and The Business of Fancy Dancing. I like documentaries wich are obscure almost by definition, though they are becoming less so.
Favorite musicI grew up on the Beatles, Paul Simon, Neil Young, Willie Nelson, Emylou Harris...I still like those but I like tones of other stuff...Ryan Adams, Richard Buckner, Marisa Monte, and bad 70s music.
Favorite booksAngle of Repose--really anything by Wallace Stegner, Bright Web in the Darkness by Alexander Saxton, Reservation Blues--and anything else by Sherman Alexie, The Morning hte SUn Went Down by Daryl Babe Wilson...that's really skimming the surface
