Authors
The writers behind this newsletter.
I'm a happily aging kid raised in the 1960s. I write memoir, work as a graphic designer, perform in story slams. Wham! Bam! Thank You! Slam! and The Next Write Thing. And I'll make YOUR stack look great!
Author of THE LAND OF EVERLASTING SKY: A MEMOIR OF LOSS AND LEGACY ON LAKE OF THE WOODS (June 2026 from She Writes Press)
Too poor to marry, I chainsmoked philosophy and took lovers instead. No time for kids while birthing feminism with a pen and a glare. Could out-drink and out-think her existential fuck buddies, including Sartre and Nelson Algren. Nickname: Beaver
