I've kept a journal since age 17, have written over 100 poems in the past 30 years, have written monthly columns for Active Singles Life since 1992, and published Pleasures and Ponderings: From Nun to Nudist to Now in 2004, with strong support (daily email for 1 1/2 years) from a friend. I love words and ideas, read a lot, have a strong need to make a contribution to the world.
