I'm fifty-six years old.  Married, with one child (a daughter) and three cats.  A professional writer, and (in recent years) a retail seller of books, Subarus, and men's suits.  Involved with the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) since 1970.  Co-founder of Quaker Earthcare Witness, which is the North American Quaker environmental organization.  Presently a member of Omaha Friends Meeting, Iowa Yearly Meeting (Conservative).
