Welcome. Whether you came here on purpose or by accident, I'm delighted you found me. I'm a poet and memoirist. I write about family, nature, animals and growing up in Joliet, Illinois, which was an aging steel town when I was a kid.

I hope you'll take a few minutes to read a poem or a short essay. Writing is how I give back to the world.

You can contact me at tolf0001@umn.edu
