Cenizas de Rosas
Cenizas de Rosas is my "alter ego", she lives a far more interesting life than I do. Born in Curacao of Italian and Russian descent, she is a folklorist, storyteller & song catcher.
Quite tall (as I am not), accomplished in the arts, dark, (as I am not), she also drives a Mazerati at breakneck speeds, is independently wealthy, which is how she can be a world traveler. Having spent the last six months touring Tibet and seeking wisdom in the Himalayas, she is currently flying via Indeterminate Means Air to the area wherein "Rusalka Moon" is set in the Carpathian Mountains in order to collect more such tales.
She is staying in the picturesque Paraska Inn -- unfortunately, Cenizas is very camera shy, and hence, there are no photos. It is possible that the cover artist of "Rusalka Moon", Thea Kinyon, has a line drawing of her. I will inquire.
I, on the other hand, am an academic and a fiber artist. I was born in the Pacific Northwest, and am currently living in the environs of Berkeley, Ca. where I am working on my Ph.D. dissertation. I have just returned from a conference in the systems sciences held at Asilomar where I delivered a paper entitled "Sauntering Wild on the Mountaintop: Toward a Theory of Aesthetic Inquiry". It can be found in the 2001 proceedings at www.ISSS.org. When I am not writing or researching something, I like to cook and to garden.
Yours,
Lezlie Kinyon (for Cenizas de Rosas)
