Bio:

 


Professional librarian, network admin, amateur horseman, published but far-from-prolific writer in several fields, newbie podcaster, serious about food and cooking, conservation, dogs and horses. Writing is something I have done for a living at times, though I have to admit my favorite work is never anything like what I produced then. I'm still a romantic at heart, and I love a story about companionship, love, or kindred spirits finding each other.
