What Others Say

“...Some of the striking images and the lines one wants to roll around in the mouth...read around in the poetry and listen to it. I commend it as a joy to the reader, worthy of the widest audience it can command....” J. L. Jonsson, Professor and Director, Professional Writing & Publishing Program, Emerson College, Boson, Massachusetts (retired, Long Beach, CA)

“...Often she brings the sublime down to earth in a manner reminiscent of Wordsworth....” Jean Tabory, Poet, Toronto, Canada

“Wow!!!!! Just read "People a Certain Age" (p 15) and find it amazingly in tune and all-age inclusive with your techie allusions blended into a mind-grabbing realism so universal as to appeal to everyone - so far away from airy diaphanous wordscapes - this is reality and can be accessed by people of any age. I'm so glad I took the time this morning - I'll read it again during the day. Really appealing to me.” Helen Forsgard, Educator, Scituate, Massachusetts

“Your publication is profoundly beautiful. The cover is breathtaking. Ninety-one pages of your muse. This is an outstanding piece of work. You should be proud. Thank you....” Carla Goodwin, PhD., Lakeville, Massachusetts

“I CANNOT WAIT to read the whole of A Slightly Different Take. Oh my god, It’s beautiful – What a lovely thing to have for an advent/Christmas/new year’s read...perhaps it’ll accompany me on our first retreat in Costa Rica! Thank you EVER so much....Caravan is beautiful – I found it rich and delicate at the same time – very evocative and moving – thank you for it!!!!”
