Self Portrait

Becoming Self-Employed A wise man once said, "The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The second best time is today." I always wanted to be a writer. One day, I decided to plant that tree.

Realizing Dreams Come True My freelance career began as a watercolor artist with Weborg Lodge Studio in 2002. The business has flourished. My paintings are in 36 out of 50 states and six countries worldwide. In 2009, I began my writing venture.

From Paintings to Books Being a writer has been the most fulfilling thing I've ever done. The independence of making your own path through life is exhilarating.

It's not without its challenges and obstacles. But at least they are the ones I've chosen to make. Sometimes, opting out of what society thinks is the right choice is some of the most fulfilling.

Colonel? My husband, Norm, and I worked on a restoration project at Mammoth Cave National Park in Kentucky for several years. Our focus was removing an old tourist bridge loaded with creosote from the natural environment of the cave.

It was back-breaking work but satisfying. The reward is the return of cave-dwelling organisms. We were awarded the State of Kentucky's Colonel honor for our efforts, hence the name Colonel Chris.
