I write science fiction and fantasy stories.

I speak Esperanto, and use it to communicate internationally. Esperantistoj, legu mian esperantan hejmpaĝon.

To my very great surprise, I seem to have become a taiji instructor. I teach both beginners and continuing students at the Savoy Recreation Center.

For eleven years I was a senior writer at Wise Bread, writing about personal finance and frugality.

  • Circle(ish) of standing stones
    I have not checked, but I do not think these standing stones are sun-aligned.

    Perhaps plotting a red-bridge detention area breakout.

  • Toasting Rosie
    Rosie gave us a tasting kit of Glenlivit. On Christmas Eve we toasted her health with the 12-year. On Christmas Day we'll toast her health with the 15-year. The 18-year we'll use to ring in the new year!
  • Purple potatoes, roasted
    These purple potatoes from the farmers market lose their purple when they're boiled. So Jackie roasted them—but now they're blue!
  • The weir is dry!
    For months now water has been overtopping the weir, but Saturday it was dry! This means we don't have to go out to First Street to get to our little woods.
  • Cocktail hour and singing solstice carols
    Among the carols: "Christians and the Pagans," "Blue Solstice," "Dance Up the Sun" (really a vernal equinox carol), "The Green Man," "Carol of the Old Ones."
  • Team Giardia
    Almost 30 years ago, my mom gave me this giardia-themed sweatshirt. She gave one to my brother as well. We wore them on a century ride maybe 27 years ago, calling ourselves "Team Giardia."
