Poet and teacher

I write journalism. My work has appeared in San Diego Gazette and a few places that have long since closed.
I write best early in the morning with a pot of tea. I garden badly but happily.
I never expected anything in return, but a kind word always makes my day.
More about Brooklyn
Some of my pieces still make me wince. Some, I'm proud of.

What gifts mean to Brooklyn: A gift would give me a bit more time to write instead of taking on extra work.
