About this author




I was honored to be asked to participate in a panel of editors addressing
the topic “Beyond the First Draft: Editing Your Manuscript for Success”
at the Saturday, May 18, monthly meeting of the
Greater Los Angeles Writers Society (GLAWS), which meets in West L.A.

“Now hear a new truth. The Great Mother Herself will be forced to hide from those who are coming. She will seem to disappear while they grow strong, but someday She will return. Although our children and their children, perhaps to the thousandth generation, must live in the new world that has forgotten Her, they must never forget. She will return.”
