| Introduction | I'm a StandUp Parenting fan. I've become a serious fiction writer. Four days a week you'll find me working on rewriting one of my many novels or working on a new one. I'm a mom of four adult children - two sets of siblings - one bio and one adopted. I am now a grandmother of five kids, 6 and under. My husband and I have been married for 34 years! I've been a foster mom. I'm involved with my church. Five years ago I made a big life change, moving from outreach to kids through camps and into working with moms in crisis with their kids of all ages. Over the years I've dealt with the police, psych and residential units, the foster care system and juvenile and adult court system. Oh yah, schools, special ed., psychologists, psychiatrists ...been there, done that...and survived! |

That can't really be a fish you're standing on, can it?
Yes, that is a fish - in fact it's a salmon. I live in Portland, trust me!
