What is the aim or goal of your writing: Parents stocked house with books and we went to the library every Saturday. Always read and wrote. My work ethic? Focus on pleasure, ease, kindness, gentleness, spaciousness and show up every day, at the desk, without fail. I rely heavily on a group of friends--all of them artists--and it is this community that supports and sustains me and my work.
