I live in Seattle, Washington, and became an accidental blogger in September, 2004. Since then, blogging has become a virtual daily necessity. It is so easy, I just open the screen and let whatever is on my mind pour out.
I graduated in 1987, BA, Russian, University of Oregon. I've lived in Seattle, Washington for over twenty years and I love it's vibrant coffee shops and literary scene. I have not yet attempted to get published anywhere except on Blogit, but I have become a member of West Seattle Poets, and help organize readings quarterly.
I love poetry and journaling, and I hope to help others overcome their fear and inhibitions about writing, and let their stories come out and help heal them as writing as helped heal me, through the catharsis, insight, and healing of journaling and poetry.
