About me (in a wee nutshell):
I am a freelance contributor to The Guardian (among other publications). My narrative nonfiction essays are humorous and honest, written with humility and a big dollop of midlife. I’m currently working on a novel.
As a newly-minted midlife writer who has recently discovered my voice, I’m all in.
