A few years ago, I read Jane Warren Campbell's wonderful book Conversations with a Tree. I still go back to it for the wisdom it contains, and I have written more than one piece about it.

I have always loved music. I grew up surrounded by music and sounds. I play the French horn and studied that at UGA and the Cincinnati College/Conservatory of Music. I started composing when I was in my 20s but stopped as I raised my two children. After my father passed away, I came back to creating music mostly for symphonic bands, but I also composed a bit for choir and orchestra. I am an avid gardener and rosarian. I still teach music. I am now a published author through Amazon Kindle. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C9VZ76ZS?binding=hardcover&searchxofy=true&ref_=dbs_s_aps_series_rwt_thcv&qid=1719330636&sr=8-6
