Pam Parker is…
A New England transplant who lives in suburban Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where she likes to count deer sightings in addition to writing. She has been, at different times in her life, a rather decent gymnast, a not-so-great gymnastics’ judge, a middle school teacher and various and sundry other things. She remains a wife, mother, writer and writing coach, and grateful breast cancer survivor. Among the many blessings in her life, she counts the RedBird-RedOak Writing community in Milwaukee way up high on her list.
