I'm a writer who teaches memoir and other creative writing classes at the University of San Francisco's Fromm Institute for Lifelong Learning. I've published four novels and two poetry collecion. At the moment, I'm celebrating Shanti Arts Publishing’s release of my latest poetry collection, California Dreaming, and my hybrid memoir, Dreaming Myself into Old Age: One Woman’s Search for Meaning. Both books invite readers to join me on my quest for self-discovery. Since my twenties, I've forged a relationship with my nightly dreams by recording them daily in journals and reflecting on them. At times, I've also worked with Jungian analysts who have helped me to go deeper into my dreams. As a result, I've found that the dream world often sheds light on daily events and concerns, leading to insights that I otherwise might not have discovered. This daily ritual continues, the basis for me writing Dreaming Myself into Old Age. My memoir not only shows how night dreams have influenced me, but also how all the arts have fed my waking and dreaming self. I've learned that attending to my inner world can help me to meet the changes that aging offers. I also bring readers into the spiritual explorations that answer my hunger for deeper esoteric knowledge.
