| Introduction | I'm a transplant from the civilized world of Cape Cod to the western mtns of Maine. Folks here still call me a "flatlander" though I've lived here over 12 years and given birth to two children in these woods. I teach writing to high school students and love nearly every minute of it. I love learning something new and try to every day. I am on a challenging journey through graduate school and hope my children understand my absence is for a greater purpose. |
