About

I live in a small city in Virginia, along the Blue Ridge mountains, with my beautiful dogs, Carlie, Percy, Lulu, and wild torti cat, Mina.  I am a forty-something, perpetually single, sometimes dating, and long ago divorced. I am a counselor and enjoy the study and practice of coaching, spirituality, and awareness.  I am addicted to autonomy, the outdoors, sweets, and cycling.

If/when I become independently wealthy (I keep meaning to buy lottery tickets), I will spend my days walking the dogs in the woods, riding my road and mountain bikes, enjoying the company of friends and loved ones, and the solitude of my home and stables where my rescued horses and donkeys live.  This dream is not much different than my current lifestyle, save for the farm animals, and the demands of full-time work which I am emotionally invested in.   Much of my life these days finds me too busy to write or with too much material that is confidential.  But I write, never-the-less, because I need the process, the expression, and the space to share my thoughts and photographs.  Thanks for reading.
