Introduction Growing up in a family of 10 in California in the 1950s, I was nurtured in a Dutch Calvinist home that ran on lots of love and discipline. Daily reading of the old KJV Bible (including odd phrases like "he that pisseth against a wall") at meals and vigorous singing of hymns around the piano have implanted the words of faith in me; and as I age, the roots go deeper. Knowing God is everything.
Interests Reading, writing, gardening, cooking, exercise, medieval English history, digging into the Bible, spiritual disciplines, and just plain thinking. Also naps.
Favorite Books Lord of the Rings, Book of Lights, Harry Potter, The Brothers K, The Inner Voice of Love, Finding Calcutta, City of Joy, Jesus the Word to be Spoken, Box of Delights, Home, Left to Tell, Paris Review Interviews, short stories of Tolstoi. Calico Captive, Lizzie Bright and the Buckminster Boy
