Bio and Backstory

Personal grounding

I share this life with my husband, Michael Robichaud, and our furry feline family. We found each other in our 30s; and both of us are creative types.

I love art, Michael, cats, coffee, and beaches…not necessarily in that order. I’m a creative muse. I’ve always appreciated the arts, nature, beauty, and surrounding myself with it.

Somewhere I started writing… First, it was collecting ‘life wisdom’ … words that uplifted me, helped me figure out how life worked, who I was; words that held wisdom that applied across religions and skin colors and inspired me to be a better person.

Independent endeavors and free spirits are in my blood…

a farmer’s daughter; my grandmother started her own business too; and there are more writers in our family tree. Writing and WonderSpirit are a part of me that got stronger as I got older, and had to find expression.

I grew up Catholic

in a small rural town, on a dairy farm in Wisconsin; siblings included six brothers and a sister. A sense of humor and playfulness feed my spirit; Michael too! I love beaches, morning coffee dates, beauty and nature, animals, walk and talks, sunshine, and laughter; I love being happy and being who I am here to be. And I feel blessed and happy, and pass it on.
