BIO: I come from a long line of writers.  I’m told that both my grandfathers had checkbooks, and while I’m too young to remember—I’m certain they had occasion to write in them.  My mother recently wrote this letter to the Commissioner of Jurors: “No, thanks!”  My father once wrote a letter and put it in a bottle.  He drove to the Jersey shore and threw it into the ocean.  Later, he would discover there was only one set of footprints on the beach because Jesus carried him.  My younger sister wrote an unsuccessful graphic novel depicting these events.  My older sister is adapting it for a children’s book.  I wish her well.
