--Relative newcomer to Northern California.
--Single mom of a wondrous daughter in college.
--As an academic, I have done my share of scholarly writing. But I am here to nurture the creative writer of my youth who went dormant over years of professional and maternal presses. In particular, I am working on a first screenplay that integrates attention to female friendships, workplace bullying, and the city of Detroit.
-- I look forward to learning from other attendees their strategies for continuing to nurture their personal creative side amidst demanding responsibilities of professional and family life.
