Bewildering Stories biography
As a long-time English teacher from Grand Blanc, Michigan, I practice what I encourage of my students, exploring possibilities. Since childhood, when traveling the Grand Canyon listening to my parents call from the front seat, “Get your nose out of that book,” I don’t consider a day satisfying unless I’m reading, scribbling or slinging ink that could later become something more.
In homage to beloved authors such as G.B. Shaw, Mark Twain and Kurt Vonnegut, my current novel in progress about small-town politics is sprinkled with satire.
When I’m not writing, I’m cycling a new path with my guy, playing flute, or tweaking a new recipe. My writer’s group, Instructors as Writers at Mott Community College, is my sounding board and inspiration.
