About the Author

I'm not down, I'm just savin' up.

In a nutshell, and if I can remember most of it, well fuck it- let's just hit the highlights: I am a writer, artist, yarn spinner (yes both literally and figuratively), canoer, fly-fisherman, folklore hunter, dive-bar'er, pool playing old truck driving whisky drinking wine maker's daughter. I don't understand poetry but if I had to make my best guess I'd say that when you only use a few words they have to be perfect. That's why I'm not a poet. I like to use lots of words and the wronger the better. I have two kids, they are stunning. I like old books, old country songs (good or bad), old things, creaky leather, running water and fine coffee. I can make carnitas from scratch and don't even get me started on pumpkin. I take honey and cream in my coffee. I take my coffee in a diner mug. I prefer bank-eight to straight and like 600 thread count sheets. I have 5 pillows and two cats one is named Gravy.
