About the Author

I was born in Englewood NJ in 1967 and my parents divorced when I was two years old due to child abuse incidents both to myself and my full sister, who is 14 months younger than me. I was raised by my father and his mother & then placed in foster care from ages 10 to 17&1/2. I attended UMass Amherst in 1985 for a year & lived in Northampton for another year. I lived in Worcester MA for 12 years in serial long-term lesbian relationships, then moved to Spencer with my current wife in 2001. I have lived with my wife Diane for 11 years and we were legally married in 2005. I work in Framingham MA for Philips Lifeline, having been hired in 2000.
