I believe that writing should be uplifting and should help us feel happy or give us ideas about how to live better. I like to write about real people, romance, adventure, history, dragons ('cause they're funny and wise), and magic. I love an old quote by Maeve Binchy about how her characters all start out as losers, and they get better by the end of the book. Isn't that the way to live our lives, too? Always getting better? I like to think so!

What I have done so far, this life:
• Grew up on a cattle ranch in the Rocky Mountains of Canada, descendant of Ukrainian and Irish pioneers. Rode horses. Chased cattle. Toughened up. Got to know a lot of trees and rocks better than people. Earned a B.Sc. in Chemistry and a B.Ed., a yoga teacher's certificate, and a professional chemist's designation. Travelled the world (45 countries so far). Taught high school in three provinces. Worked in a chemistry lab. Had about two dozen other interesting jobs (jilleroo, logger, bellydance teacher, baker, construction worker...). Wrote books and essays, including kids' books, romance novels, and Chemistry textbooks. Met inspiring people. Met crazy people. Volunteered. Raised a good strong kind smart son. Fell in love with some interesting people and sometimes the wrong ones but never yet the right one.

Still to do:
•Write more articles, books, and other things to inspire people. Continue raising my son well. Meet the love of my life. Inspire and help more people grow things and themselves. Enjoy life and love and the people and beauty around me.
