Karen

I am a teacher by calling, a writer by nature, a mother by grace, and a wife by choice. I love all my roles, though am better at some than at others. I write because I love it and because I need it to deal with a life that can be cruel and cynical as well as beautiful and mysterious.

I have just discovered the great poet Andrea Gibson and recommend her poetry to anyone wanting inspiration and open to learning new styles of poetic expression.
