I am a female 50-something journalist/writer with some 15 years in the business. I’m not working in journalism right now, but I have a journalist’s trained mind, and tend to take an objective view of things. My loves, hobbies and interests are as varied and liberal as the so-called liberal media, which by the way, is largely owned by ultra-conservative media moguls.
Those interests include photography, philosophy, comparative mythology, politics, animals, medicine, conservation, space (stars, planets, comets and meteors as well as personal) good books, mindful television, art, dance, traditional British Isles folk music, making jewelry, and much more.
I think, therefore, I am not easily swayed.
