Goose Creek Press

Speaker, teacher, field trip leader, author-essayist, nature photographer. Centering on understanding and repair of our relationships with nature, place and community.

I am a resident of Floyd County since 1997 and of southwest Virginia since 1975. Following careers in education and health care, my vision has turned to what I think of as my “personal ecology.” More bio at about.me

My two books, Slow Road Home and What We Hold In Our Hands come out of time spent in relationship to nature, place and community. Look for them on shelves at the Country Store and Jacksonville Center in Floyd.
