ABOUT JUDITH

judi-headshot

Aside from living for three years in both England and Texas, I was raised in Kentucky. My childhood was spent outdoors catching fireflies, wandering to the creek, and watching the starry, night sky. Once inside, however, I read, spending many hot, humid afternoons or icy evenings engrossed in my books. I also wrote, filling pages with rambling thoughts or short stories.

After attending the University of Kentucky, I ventured to California, completing my education with an A.A. degree from College of Marin, a B.A. degree from San Francisco State University, and an M.A. and two teaching credentials from Sonoma State University. Teaching became my profession and my lifestyle. I loved it, and although I am connected still with many, former students, writing is now my focus.

I have raised two wonderful sons and reside with my husband, my best friend, in Sonoma Country, California. Besides writing, I read avidly, care for my gardens, raise beautiful orchids, tend our lovely koi pond, and walk my two beloved German Shepherds three miles a day.

My life itself has provided me with seemingly unlimited material for my writing. I write every day...something! I have a blog entitled I Street Imaginings that can be reached through Blogspot.com. I also have a professional Facebook page, I Street Books And Such where I share news about my books, my blogs, and other tidbits that I find interesting to post there. I also can be found on LinkedIn. I am most interested in connecting with professionals who share my interests.
