Virginia Woolf was right: every woman needs a room of her own. This is mine. What you'll find here will be links to what interests me, a few rants now and then, and some of my poems and other writing. This site is, as some have noted, "text-rich." What do you expect from a person whose business it is to work with the written word? A little about me Obviously, I'm a feminist and a left-winger. Check out the webrings I'm part of if you want to (a) visit like-minded sites or (b) become enraged. And you'll want to visit my Women/Feminism page, as well as Politics/Society. My Rants give vent to my frustrated political ideals. I have a few preoccupations, to wit: books, writing, cooking, frogs, and Xena. I'm also interested in the theories of Carl Jung. According to the Myers-Briggs test, I'm an ENFP. That's "extraverted, intuitive, feeling, perceiving," for those of you who aren't familiar with the personality types based on Jung's theory. My husband, on the other hand, is an INTJ--"introverted, intuitive, thinking, judging." You can probably gather from this that our thirty-year marriage has had some interesting moments. You can find out more about personality types at the Personality Type Test web site. I believe that dreams give us insight into ourselves, and that the unconscious can also be tapped by such things as Tarot readings and creative endeavors. I don't regard myself as New Age, although I may sound like a New Ager to you. I'm interested in Jung's theory of the archetypes and in his ideas about the unconscious. To find out more about Carl Jung, go to the Jung Web. You'll find lots of links there. Writing has always been important to me. Please check out my Writing page and let me know what you think of my work. Four friends and I recently formed a writers' group; we meet once a month to support each other, offer suggestions for revision, and provide each other with a safe audience. Cindy, Cal, John, and Timothy give me encouragement and a deadline to write against. Visit my friend Cindy's page--she's written an amazing amount of stories, poems, novels, even a textbook.My husband, Jim, and I are building
a new house. Check out its progress.
