I am now a 'woman of a certain age'...not young and not old; I think I'll stay here awhile.

I am the author of three nonfiction books about music and five novels; during my career as a journalist I worked in music, fine arts and Investigative.

For the past ten years I have also been a Global Financial Consultant/Liaison, raising a large amount of capital for The Magic Wand multi-media fund and Foundation. That job is now ending, and I will be returning to publishing, film and television work. My film and television work in the past was peripheral; editing and script doctoring -- I will now be expanding that into development and financing.

I am the CEO of Lost Myths Ink, a film and prose development company. I live in Northern California. My original business partner, Sandra Brandenburg, left us for the Summerland in 2012 and her husband Tom took over her share of the company. I miss Sandra everyday, as I do all the other loved ones who have wandered on. Life doesn't really slow down as we age, it just gets more complicated.

My best friends are my business partner Sandra Brandenburg and her husband Tom, the General Manager of Lost Myths Ink.

My youngest friends are Sequoia (6), Sage (4), Elizabeth (6) and Zachary (10).. My oldest friend is George Stevens, Sandra's surrogate father, aged 87. In between there are many others!
