I am a Zen Buddhist practitioner from the humble stretches of the South Jersey lowlands who is now an expatriate to the Great Plains of South Dakota – Buddhist Purgatory. I am a mediator, writer, folk poet, librarian hobgoblin, occasional scientist, father of two little dakinis and a steady burner of birch logs.
