And Now for Something Completely Different

I have been quietly working on a Master of Arts in Storytelling from East Tennessee State University (one of two schools that grants such a degree) in conjunction with the International Storytelling Center and Festival in Jonesborough, Tennessee. I am happy to share that I am now a master storyteller. That is Frank Mentzer in the picture with me in front of the desk of Gary Gygax.

Happy Easter

Effective July 1, I have been called to be interim rector at St. Andrew's Episcopal Church in Colchester, Vermont. I am so excited to be working with them.
