About Me

- Name: 'Zann
- Location: Terre Haute, Indiana, United States
Professor's wife, 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 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. I've just turned sixty. Life seems very beautiful and sweet and sad. I'm in the 4th year of co-hosting a monthly poetry reading at a local coffee house, in the process of working with another bookshop that's closing and feeling I'm standing in liminal space just now. Looking forward to my annual winter retreat in which I resist commitments & just breathe, write, make art.
