  • Bio

    .. ..Petal Pusher: A Rock and Roll Cinderella Story .. available.. NOW!.... .. I grew up (but didn't grow up) in Madison, Wisconsin. I was a high school cheerleader and choir jock but went off the party deep-end at the University of Wisconsin (as one is wont to do in Madison)... .. Moving to Minneapolis in the mid-'80's, my girlfriends and I formed the band Zuzu's Petals. We sucked for three years or so (depending on who you ask), and got our act together around 1991 (vans, tours, recording contracts). I hooked up with musician Paul Westerberg and got the nesting urge in a major way... .. After the band, I went from songwriting to prose writing. A house, parenthood, and an MFA in Creative Writing followed. When not parenting or writing, I teach Memoir in local schools as a resident writer through a non-profit arts organization... .. I follow with odd obsession the Minnesota Twins and Timberwolves. I have a shopping problem, especially with sample sized beauty products and a few choice online shops when I have writer's block.
