It has been brought to my attention that my bio was rather undistinguished and should perhaps be 'jazzed' up a bit. So, after serious consideration, I will add a few highlights that may or may not prove interesting to anyone who by chance happens upon this bio. I am retired, living in Virginia to be near my thre exceptional grandchildren, after having spent my life/career as a designer, (furniture.interiors.decorative art) not as a writer. Writing sort of came to me as an afterthought and although it may never reach heights of memorable journalism it is an avenue for expressing my rather bewildered state of mind brought on by recent events in the unfolding saga on the American political stage. My writing is more in keeping with venting as my perceptions are honed from many years of expecting common sense and rationality to rule the day. I seem to have outlived those virtues and my hope is to exist long enough to see a welcome return to the 'old' and more honorable ways of dealing with the issues so pertinent to a sustainable life on this poor depleted planet we call home.
