Description

"My poetry, like my art," the author says, "comes from the heart. Most of the poems are written during my walks. Although not a scientific person, I try to be a keen observer of the scene around me. As readers of these poems will notice, I have a particular fondness for rocks, the moon and other natural phenomena which we still allow to intrude on our technological world." She is also the author of A World Set Apart, Memory Paintings; Writing and Selling Poetry, Fiction, Articles, Plays & Local History; How to Paint and Sell Your Art; Indian Pottery of the Southwest; Kachinas, A Selected Bibliography; Ma Frump's Cultural Guide to Plastic Gardening which won a first place award in the 2008 New Mexico Book Awards; Ma Frump's Cultural Guide to Instant Intellectualism, Post Card Views and Other Souvenirs, Poems; Fake Ivory, New and Selected Poems; Thin Ice and Other Poems; and Words and Images, Poems, all from Sunstone Press. Her biography, Left Early, Arrived Late, by Teddy Jones, also from Sunstone Press, was published in 2008. In 2006, she was named a Santa Fe Living Treasure in recognition of her many accomplishments.
