Areas of Publication and Writing:

I am a published poet, editor, coordinator and designer of Windows Fine Arts Magazine; a designer, judge and photographer for other University magazines; further, I have created manuals, and reviewed texts for publishers in all genres.

 

I have been a participant in poetry contests and conference readings.  My goal is to publish poetry and other books or articles that appeal to my special interests of China, adolescent literature with illustration, design and photography in short stories, and research and publication regarding literary criticism, including Psychoanalytic,  Deconstructionist, Feminist, and New Historicist theories.

 

In the summer of 2004, I received a Faculty Funded Summer Stipend to do research on directed self-placement for my role as Director of Writing Placement.  I produced a document on “Plagiarism” for Lewis University’s English department.

 

In 2003, I was Co-Editor with Nancy Workman, Ph.D. of the English department, on Dimensions of Curiosity:  A Celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the College of Arts and Sciences.
