Cross-border perspectives

Turtle

Turtle on a log in Kelowna's Rotary Marsh

Writing and storytelling from both sides of North America’s 49th parallel and now living in my 34th home, I’ve learned to be something of a turtle. I carry home on my back.

That perspective is woven through my work, whether I’m crafting an entry for a blog or telling stories or leading a workshop. Sometimes I envy those with deep roots. On the other hand, we rolling stones lose some of our sharp edges, our cultural prejudices, our insistence that the narratives we cut our teeth on work for everyone.

Links to my blogs, writing samples, photography, and storytelling workshops are all on this Web site. Welcome to my cross-border world.
