Brief Author Bio: Considered NaNoWriMo back in '04 or so but didn't start because of graduate school. This is the year. My software engineering background keeps a roof over my head and food on the table, my MA in Transformative Language Arts rattles around waiting for more exercise and care (kind-of like my body). Married to an intuitive healer. Writes best in the garden shed away from everything but still within WiFi range. |

Synopsis: Leaves of the Body
Alix leaves passionate lover and safe job in the city to become a counselor at a small New England college where questions of identity, desire and commitment are explored among paintbrush trees, deep quarries and in tangled intersections with others.
A love story, a vagabond in New England, a story of self discovery and desire and commitment. Think: The Waves + Written on the Body + Garden State or Easy Rider or something not quite found the thread but I like the color of. Toying with the idea of a gender-ambiguous narrator.
