The Editor is in essence a free spirit. From the beginning of her adulthood she has spent her time between Cleveland, Los Angeles, El Paso and New York City. During these years she has supported herself as a maid, waitress, student, panhandler, factory worker, welfare recipient, touring merchandiser, urban camper, campaign worker, background actor, and fencing instructor.
Her middle adulthood was comfortably spent as a sort of punk rock Martha Stewart housewife. At this time gardening, crocheting, cross-stitching, genealogy, reading, writing, belly dancing and fencing were her hobbies.
Since then she spent several years loving her work at a retail shop as a bookseller. When she got bored of being tied down with a steady job, and missing her older, freer lifestyle, she became a hardcore traveler. Between multiple foreign adventures and couch tours, mainly in Britain and Holland, she has had a brief stay at a state mental hospital.
Now at age 38 she is concentrating on writing, and getting her shit together. As present she's gambling to make ends meet and traveling when and if at all possible. White Trash Journals is her first novel. |
