edit data

I am the author of two books, Pickled Poems, an anthology of nonsense verse for children, and Something Beautiful, a volume of poems and reflections for adults. The publication of these books has been most unexpected, as chronic illness has created great limitations on my life. I consider my books to be a gift to myself, and hopefully to my readers. It is one of my greatest wishes that readers young and old be able to enjoy and share my poems and writings.
