I'm a professional writer, photographer, and counselor, blessed with the ability to wear three hats and live a rich life. I've published articles, essays and poetry, and co-authored books, academic papers, and book proposals. Dogs seem to be a theme in my life; my first job was co-authoring a dog training book (Beyond Obedience), published by Harmony in 1998 and still in print.

When I moved West from NY, dogs inspired me again and I created a greeting card company (Great Dog Greetings/Lightmark Photography) featuring dogs in cars with humorous captions. New card lines focus on cats and folk art...[more]

I'm a professional writer, photographer, and counselor, blessed with the ability to wear three hats and live a rich life. I've published articles, essays and poetry, and co-authored books, academic papers, and book proposals. Dogs seem to be a theme in my life; my first job was co-authoring a dog training book (Beyond Obedience), published by Harmony in 1998 and still in print.

When I moved West from NY, dogs inspired me again and I created a greeting card company (Great Dog Greetings/Lightmark Photography) featuring dogs in cars with humorous captions. New card lines focus on cats and folk art. My work can be found in bookstores, gift shops, food coops and pet stores throughout the Seattle area, as well as in Oregon, Idaho, Ohio, Vermont, and online through my website. I also exhibit my art photography, do commissions, and love the offbeat project that allows me to use my skills to help you get your work noticed.

In the past 2 years, I have begun doing website design and content, including my own.

I have also been a grief counselor for 15 years, my way of giving back after losing my husband to cancer. Does it seem strange - humor and dogs versus grief and loss? I am grateful to experience both sides of the human condition. A Google search will tell you more. [less]
