Bio
I shake you warmly by the hand and offer many welcomes!

Currently a writer, artist, homeschooler, and explorer, I have played many other roles. I’ve managed a restaurant, debated across the country, taught children in Spain, run a handful of student organizations and retreats, served as the Editor/Producer/Citizen Journalist Manager for a nonprofit, sung in choir for many years, volunteered with dozens of organizations and interned with a few, home-schooled two wonderful people, taught CPR and first aid, painted faces, cared for many a pet, tutored college students, and protested a thing or two. I am married to my rugged adventurer/high school sweetheart, and together we have a very tenacious teen. Here at my blog, these two are known as Indy and Wood Sprite.

Aside from my love of writing, art, reading, and generally being as ambitious as possible, I enjoy  playing with my kid, learning new things, having date nights with The Husband, traveling, swimming, karaoke and highlighting anything within my reach. We are active in several homeschool groups, 4-H club,  and other fun activities. I’m very interested in social justice, self-directed learning, children’s rights, feminism, the arts, fantasy and YA lit, Health at Every Size, and generally subverting the dominant paradigm.
