Perri Zepeda
Perri Zepeda lives in southern Oregon, where she has semi-retired from teaching in Multicultural and Court Education. She has enjoyed inspiring young people to become literate through their personal life stories and liberating their creative soul expression. The last few years have been a time of renewal of her interest in creative writing and documenting of her moving life journey experiences. She plans to put together her writing for publishing in the near future. She lives on a beautiful ranch and wildlife preserve in high desert country with her family.

"We each carry lines of poetry with us. Words that others have written float back to us and stay with us, indelibly. We clutch these "life lines" like totems, repeat them as mantras, and summon them for comfort and laughter."
-Academy of American Poets
