| Introduction | i am a writer,collage artist, bonsai-maker, and big-garden tender. leaving no time for good housekeeping, but sacrifices must be made for the sake of a creative life. i enjoy the wordplay of writing haiku. i get together with friends to drum and sing. i have a huge college education, but ended up a massage therapist and dilletante farmer. go figure... study literature and art history and end up living with livestock. i raised my son and got to be with him as he grew up. and homeschooled him. he is out on his own, and doing pretty well, so the great experiment was-for the most part-successful. for that alone i am most grateful. i have no complaints, its a peaceful good country life. |
