I was in Marquette Friday for the Upper Peninsula Publishers and Authors Association book fair. It was a lovely 75 degree day without a cloud in the sky. Sat opposite my friend and colleague Janeen Rastall and signed books for people. Several librarians stopped by for the book and invited me to read at their libraries. All ended with a great dinner with friends and my two sons at Sol Azteca Mexican restaurant there on the water where I had Choripollo Tacos (chicken chorizo) which were mouth watering.
During the fair, I received a phone call from Lynn Domina, the new head of the English Dept. at NMU and she offered me classes for Fall semester. It seems I am now back to work at least for now. The schedule is perfect for me and I have missed the students.
Promise to post more pictures and get more artsy with postings soon!

I love words so I write them. I’ve been doing that since I was old enough to read. I am a published literary writer and I was an adjunct English professor at Northern Michigan University for many years. I write and live and love off the grid on 35 acres and a trout stream in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula with my son, Joshua, who has Down Syndrome, and with an English Shepherd dog named Maggie, and with my husband when he can make it here which isn’t often. This blog started out being about my work, and it will continue to be. ( I’m working on a novel about premonitions and dreams.) But this blog is also about living off the grid and about my experimentation with diet—most recently the Carnivore Diet. I started on the Ketogenic diet, but have moved into Carnivore. How long, I don’t know. But I’ve become interest in the effects of diet on not just my health, but on creativity. And I’m interested in the effects of the diet on my dreams.
Ah, dreams... The day before my son was born, my mother “dreamed” or was told my son would have Down Syndrome, something she told my brother ahead of time. I’ve never known what to make of that. So I’m interested in prophetic dreams, lucid dreaming, creativity and dreams, night terrors. Who isn't interested in that? I’m interested in Freud (more Jung) and Einstein’s theories of time and how their ideas inform my dreams. I’m interested in mining a deeper relationship with a dream world not confined to daytime experiences, and how the night might inform a more fully imagined daytime “reality.” And vice-versa. Which is the dream?? I’m exploring dreams of all sorts. Come explore with me…
