My three daughters featured in "The 3 a.m. Companion for the Newly Motherless" have grown up! They still keep me hopping with their busy lives. "Mom" and "part-time writer" comprise my current job description but I wouldn't have it any other way (until the bills come in each month!)  I currently write a monthly light humor column in The Orinda News entitled "Everyday Orinda." Marin, my oldest, lives and works in San Francisco.  Zoe lives and works in Manhattan. Kyra attends Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo. I feel another book will be in the making, combating the effects of empty nest syndrome. Thank you for taking time to read my work. I sincerely hope it provided you with some temporary relief from the demands of coping with a monumental loss.
