I'm not ready to tell you a lot about me, except that I like to talk (write).
I've always lived in the Northeast (Connecticut, New York). Have one brother, one sister, both younger. Married since 1968; two daughters, one son. Unmarried Daughter lives with us, Married Daughter and Son-in-Law live a couple thousand miles away. Son, Daughter-in-Law and remarkable granddaughters live a couple hours away by train. Worked more than 45 years, now retired.
If you want to read my pages, go to http://l-empress.liscious.net, My Updated Page, which seems to work a little better for me. Seems as if D'land won't let me imbed a link here. It figures.

Anne Perry |

Isaac Asimov |
comments: Good sci-fi, but interested in so many things that he continually taught me. |
