Carole Oldroyd, a West Virginia native, makes her home in east Teneessee with her longsuffering husband and two furry canine companions, Sinner and Gypsy. Her two college-age sons are grown and on their own, and that leaves a mighty empty hole in the Oldroyd house. She fills that hole, sometimes even successfuly, with writing, organic gardening, knitting, cooking (as a sport!), restoring her 110 year old house and college classes. She is in her second year working toward her first degree, but she has learned that college is awesome, dude, and she'll probably be a lifetime student. Consequently, her parents want to know who she is and what she did with their daughter. The first article she ever wrote was published in Llwewllyn's 2007 Herbal Almanac, and she always has some new story (or twelve!) simmering. Non-fic is her game, and humor is the way she likes to play it. She swears that life is just plain funny. If we couldn't find the humor, we'd all be crazy. Well, crazier.
