- Bio
- I am a poet-essayist-singer-songwriter, and advocate for the poor, with a teaching and counseling background. I grew up in Florida, now live in Arden, North Carolina. I also lived in New England 20 years.
I love nature, music, and poetry. I am married and we have three adult-kids between us and four grandkids!
I am interfaith, leaning toward Taoist, Celtic, and Native American spirituality, and an "Obama Democrat."
I am now focusing on our upcoming move (within Asheville) as well as my music and poetry-writing. I also continue to write political columns.

The original post follows, after this follow-up. It turned out to be one of the most eventful and stressful sub assignments I have ever had.
