Before I achieved the American Dream, I woke up. Well on the way to a secure retirement, I popped a wheelie and skidded to a halt. I turned off the well-lit traditional career path, onto the unpaved side road of creative self-employment. The American Dream is too small for me.
I write personal essays, humorous commentary and dharma talks. My work has been published by The Christian Science Monitor, Skirt! Magazine, The Best Times, Kansas City Voices, Alzheimer's Anthology of Unconditional Love, TheAmericanBuddhistCenter.org andThe Topeka Metro News.
Elizabeth Pomada, of the Larsen Pomada Literary Agency in San Francisco, loved my proposal for a guided journal. She now represents my forthcoming book - At Home in Your Head: Twenty Rooms of Journaling Inspiration.
I'm a member of the Writers Place - Midwest Center for the Literary Arts. In addition, I belong to the Kansas City Writers Group and the Missouri Writers Guild. Once a month I deliver the inspirational message at a Sunday morning meditation service.
And, because I'm a writer, I have a Favorite Word: redundant.
