Winner, 2010 Literal Latte Food Verse Contest.
We relax over lunch, sipping Courvoisier floats,
savoring lemon slices sugared in champagne,
while the waiter brings paté spiced with caper berries…

A former English teacher, I have spent my retirement pursuing my interest in creative writing. A member of the Mad River Poets, and former Vice President of The Poetry Society of Vermont, I contributed to Pebbles from the Stream and Brighten the Barn.
My poems have also appeared in several publications, including Lyric magazine, Vermont Literary Review, Bloodroot, Time of Singing, and the 1929 Anthology of Vermont Writers published by The League of Vermont Writers. One poem, "Jane Austen, Revisited," won first place in Piano Press Eighth Annual Art of Music Writing Contest, a nationwide competition.
In addition to writing poetry, I write novels; my agent is currently seeking publication for my novel, The Royal Pawn.
