Bio: OK you found me out. I'm a semi retired microbiologist and author. This somewhat unholy alliance has led to many articles, four novels and one bio thriller about to be hatched. I have no earthly excuse not to write volumes except that I have this belief system that I must be in some dangerous place to be inspired. Hence, I exercise every ounce of frequent flyers I possess. My travels worldwide have inspired much of my writing and, of course, been involved in my bio work as well. It is now time that I pay attention to the calendar and get cracking. Riding two horses of two parallel careers can be a bit uncomfortable and hard on the hips. One last confession, I love all animals to bits. I pet sit anyone from dogs and pussycats, to kangaroos and the occasional emu. They help and inspire my writings and often write their own journals. Another career? Perhaps. let me saddle up my third horse.

HI! We met at Asilomar on Monday, my last day there, in the front of the cafeteria. We discovered we had some mutual friends from Dutch Flats. Also that we are both writing books, mine about my adoption saga and yours in the field of medicine and disease. You had a meeting with your co-author that you were preparing for. I hope it went well. I just wanted to say hello now that I found your blog. Blessings! Susan

I have never did pet-sit for an emu or a kangaroo. Have I led too sheltered a life?

Sheltered requires being surrounded by fluffy pussycats and puppydogs. Try cuddling a koala someitime. I’m having a challenge with wordpress. I have no clue where anything is anymore anyway, thanksfor coming to my page. How do I find you? g

Hey Ellen, I’m reupping my Word Press wisdom and would love to connect with you on your blog. I’ve lost my way somehow, so John Howell, my author mentor and good friend is going to help me today. Any chance of you sending me your blog address directly on email? Jeeeeez but cyber stuff is getting tedious. In any event are you in the UK? I’ve been writing stuff regarding covid only I’ve deliberately kept it gentle reminders. I’m a world health microbiologist but people, in general, have been inundated by all the info, so I keep it a cross between humor and common sense. http://www.epidemicsweb.wordpress.com In any event, I’d love to read your blog Geri Lennon
