Mugwumpishly Tendered

<p>Corinne Corley - <em>(the child formerly known as 'Mary') hails from Jennings Missouri where she survived Catholic schools and learned everything she knows being the sixth child of eight. Her writing career began in 1970 with an essay for a Christian youth magazine in which she postulated God as a neuter gender being for which the magazine paid $5.00. A er a long cherished and sometimes amusing career as a Missouri attorney she closed her law practice sold her 100-year-old Brookside bungalow and decamped to Northern California in a tiny house on wheels named Angel's Haven. She has one child three ex-husbands and a solid tribe of friends without whom her life would be a wasteland of bore- dom and anxiety. You can nd her most summers on a levee road in the California Delta hanging from her car door trying to capture the perfect photograph of a lone egret among the lo y piles of hyacinth oating down the San Joaquin River. </em></p>
