Handwriting Analysis
I am a Certified Handwriting Analyst with an MFA from Bennington Writing Seminars. A former graphology instructor at Anne Arundel Community College, I have published and spoken on the subject for such venues as Retirement Living TV, The Bay Weekly, Chesapeake Family Magazine, and The International Willa Cather Seminar. My current work-in-progress is Mother’s Ink: A Momoir in Handwriting Analysis, portions of which comprise an essay that was recently named a finalist for the 2021 Missouri Review’s Jeffrey E. Smith Prize for Nonfiction. A separate excerpt from the memoir is posted here at Reconciliation: How Handwriting Analysis Helped Me Forgive My Mother and Myself.
I am further interested in the authorial use of handwriting as a plot and characterization device, the topic of my MFA research at Bennington Writing Seminars.
