My passion for writing books, poetry, and photography takes me to where I need to go, into a place where compositions can create order out of dissorder. Author of two books about the people and their lives in the Commercial Fishery on the Great Lakes. "Wooden Boats and Iron Men", and "Through Waves and Gales Comes Fishermen's Tales" delves into the history and oral histories of a Commercial Fishery." I am writing a series of children's books, about two squirells and their forest friends on their many adventures.
