Become a Fan. You'll get emails whenever I post articles on OpEdNews
I do have writing credits in a major newspaper--long ago.
Currently, I write for online political boards with a
definite liberal bias. Proud parent, grandparent and
aspiring poet and novelist. I never stopped aspiring.
Finally managed to earn a BA degree in communications/ American lit. Love romantic fiction that also stretches
the intellectual muscles. And am mad about romantic
Russian composers. I take life seriously but tend to
look at it with a healthy skepticism which sometimes
translates into satire. Satire is usually the only
genre that captures faithfully our theater of the absurd.
