Writer Wannabee is a Sagittarian - that one word should tell you volumes!
Writer Wannabee lives in Oregon’s Willamette Valley. She has been staff writer for the Port Orford News, contributed to Port Orford Today, and served as editor of the Cape Blanco Journal. In 2010 she won the Bob Simons Scholarship to the South Coast Writers Conference for her poem “Paper Ephemera.” Her poetry has been published in Rogue River Echoes and in Four and Twenty: a Short Form Poetry Journal.
Writer Wannabee is a person of many interests. There are many people who know a lot about just one thing and other people who know a little about a lot of things. I fall somewhere in the middle. I find life more interesting when my eggs are not all in one basket, and I love the feeling of connection when that happens. Some of my interests are: reading, architecture (especially Frank Lloyd Wright), lighthouses, photography, postcard collecting, Jimmy Buffett’s music, baseball (watching), trains and railroads, Lewis & Clark, history of the Pacific Northwest & the Western United States, nautical/maritime subjects, traveling in the Pacific Northwest & Western United States. Writers I especially like: Floyd Skloot, Richard Bode, Terry Pindell, Stephen Ambrose, Michael Pollan, Joan Druett, Witold Rybczynski, Joe Bailey, Robert Michael Pyle, Dennis Powers, John Daniel, and Bill Bryson.
