About Me
- Name: 'Zann
- Location: Terre Haute, Indiana, United States
Professor's widow, mother of four, zannma to two. Grew up in Coral Gables, Florida, transplanted to Indiana at age 40, where I saw my first snow and learned to love wool. We homeschooled three of the kids, I helped to create a used bookshop ( Wabash River Books 1996-2005)and became an online bookseller. I started this blog in 2005 to share my mid-life artwork (primarily fiber), poetry and creative explorations. On March 18, 2006 my 20 year-old son Patrick died...and my world irrevocably changed.
On January 7, 2024, my beloved husband Paul Burkett died...and my world irrevocably changed.
I own 73 years now. Life is still very mysterious, magickal, beautiful and sweet and sad.

"ZANN that is so COOL! Now I am going to have to go out in the world and see the quiet things that never get their pictures taken. Thanks for the inspiration. It is a very Patrick day today- Just feels like him! Happy,sunny, ...overtones of irony- with discordant sounds, birds chirping madly.
WHERE ARE YOU?
dear-- the world's a strange, strange place.... i happened to see two videos online tonight, both with young guys playing music that was just out there, and they were loving it. both of them were named patrick, can you believe it? one was your son, the other was my daughter's boyfriend, playing his first show with a new band. i just cannot get over how it all connects ... well, it connects with yarn; i found luscious gracious while searching for yarn information, and it all unravelled from there to here. i'll be reading through your everything tomorrow when i can see straight. just want you to know someone else is thinking about your Pat and your amazing family. namaste.
Karen - I got the most intense, prickly goose bumps when I read your comment. The world is indeed strange and lovely and full of mysterious connections. I hope to hear from you again....Namaste, Zann
P.S. to Karen -- Where did you see a video of my Patrick? How did that come about? I know of one that a bandmate put on youtube, but I can't find it now....
Don't know how to contact you, only if you read this...
