About the Author

Gwenda Schanzle was born in Melbourne, Australia. But calls Boston, Massachusetts, her home-city, as she married a Bostonian and lived there, with their children, for more than three-quarters of her life. She started her writing career at 17 when she was asked to write occasional articles for the Melbourne Herald Saturday Supplement on a young girl’s view of life around her. She continued as a freelance writer when the time permitted, and commenced writing poetry seriously some years ago. She says “I have always written poetry because I love it but kept those early pieces hidden away in a closet.”
