What happens when a dryad + a woodcutter marry?
Why, you get me + my husband + our Little Goblin, of course!
I have always been drawn to tales of shapeshifting women- particularly tree-spirits. I love the forest!

(This was an article I wrote as part of a series of con-reports for 201mass.com after attending Boskone 40. I wrote it mostly in response to Jim Patrick Kelly’s article “Kid Stuff”. I wrote about how I found my way to sci-fi-fantasy, and I’d like to both update & revisit my views- updating with where my sci-fi/fantasy interests have led since I wrote this, and then revisit with my latest blending/adaptation of fairy tales & folklore with regards to homesteading and sustainability. Some of the links may still work- I’ll update what I can- but this is more to give you an idea of where I was back in 2003. Sadly, I did not get to work on youth programming with Boskone, but did go on to work in a school library where I used some of my ideas.)
