| Introduction | I've lived in Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East, and have travelled in Asia and other parts of Africa, so I'm interested in art, culture and history from just about everywhere. I have a Master's in English/Creative Writing. I've worked as a Senior Writer with a marketing firm, and have done some freelance work for various non-profits. I currently spend more time reading books--books keep me sane! I read for myself and to my kids--thankfully, the YA genre has bloomed and there's loads of quality children's literature (both new and old) out there. |
