Native Texan who finds herself in the Bay Area navigating a minefield of teenaged, preteen & perimenopausal hormones. A recovering Marin private school mother of a college aged vegan hobo who recently classified bacon as candy, a teenaged gutterpunksurf-rock banjo god/bike mechanic and a middle school shotokan brown belt Whovian Mathlete drummer with aspirations in fashion and science fiction. Has been published in The Sun magazine and the Marin Independent Journal and is looking forward with dread and gusto to starting her fourth NaNoWriMo novel in November. A novice surfer, a diligent trail runner, a 4 time Dipsea Race finisher and now mastering the technique of encaustic painting because she finds melting beeswax with a propane torch quite soothing. Tries really hard to read one long New Yorker article each week, not just the cartoons and has on occasion been caught knitting. Won’t carpool.
