After 30 years working in product development and marketing (and one too many acquisitions) I retired and said "good-bye" to high-tech corporate culture … to write. My poems have appeared in The Timberline Review, Typehouse Magazine, Friday’s on the Boulevard, and soon to be released chapbook Transition Thunderstorms by The Poetry Box. Two short film scripts made it to the Willamette Writers FiLMLaB quarterfinals. I'm currently working on a post-stroke memoir about saving a 100-year-old mansion with my husband, and a psychological thriller screenplay about sub-conscious personalities. Best for me to write early in the morning before I wake up too much, best way to capture my thought echoes.
