Author, reader, animal lover, bird lover, mother, former financial analyst. I write sometimes about issues relating to both humans and the wild world, because, well, we are not only part of that wild world but also wilder than that wild world. I also write about only humans. I occasionally have an opinion that I publish on Medium. I like opinions and feel everyone has a right to them. Sometimes opinions kept secret are imagined in other brains. Maybe they are imagined to be nonexistent. Maybe they are imagined to be the opposite of what you believe. Maybe they are imagined to be complicit with actions you are deeply opposed to. So, well, if you believe it, say it.
