Bio

I spent the first 37 years of my life trying to be good until I just couldn’t do it anymore, and have spent the years since trying to be real–with myself and others.  These labels fit me best at the moment: wife, adoptive mom, divorcee, teacher, academic, writer, recovering alcoholic, later-in-life lesbian, recovering Southern Baptist, spiritual seeker.
