About me

Industry Arts
Occupation Writer & grad student
Introduction Part of me wants to grab hold of all the possibilities in urban epicenters like Oxford, Paris, Montreal, NY, Vienna, yet another part remains very embedded here in WF wanting nothing more than the quiet, coziness & certainty of these mtns, of the songbirds at our feeder, of the ebb & flow of a sense of place. Yet when all of the doors are flung widely it is there that I find my deepest sense of place. I'm presently trying to fling open doors as if I'm in a smoldering university town from this wee little ski town not bent on full access to its inmost layers. Sometimes I succeed. Sometimes I get very tired.
Interests Songbirds. Wolves. Literature. Hope. The Night Sky. Unedited conversations. Meaningful interaction. Old trees. My grandmother, Brunhild. Writing thoughts down well and beautifully. The ancient beneath the modern. Helping Naya live fully & happily.
Favorite Movies Romeo + Juliet (the Danes/DiCaprio version), Good Will Hunting, Lost in Austen, almost all of Woody Allen's films (but not all), Punky Brewster (tv), Juno, Sound of Music, Amadeus, Twilight saga, Amelie, Cold Souls
Favorite Music Bach, Mozart, Phillip Glass, anything from the 1920s, most things from the 1930s, something with a heavy beat for dancing & running. Bearfoot, foot-stompin' bluegrass.
Favorite Books Shame, Tess of the d'Urbervilles, Between the Acts, Master & Margarita, Sand County Almanac, Life of Pi, Anna Karenina, Romeo & Juliet, Flowers for Algernon, Night and Day, Nana, Plato's Symposium, When the Legends Die, The Trumpet of the Swan, Charlotte's Web, Cowboys are My Weakness, Little Big, The Folding Cliffs, A Room of One's Own, Murphy, Disgrace, The Waves...
