      Jana is the poet laureate and royal portraitist of her backyard. A storyteller by heredity, she has collaborated with sculptors, painters, actors, buskers, and a  flugelhornist. She bursts into story or image anywhere - on her purple chair, on a river path, in all coffee houses - and on The Moth Storytelling mainstage. 

     Jana is also a photographer, essayist, artist-on-the-loose, playwright, and a teacher of writing, the Montessori approach for parents, and other life-saving techniques. Her work can be found in literary journals, chapbooks, anthologies, and magazines, as well as on t-shirts. Her books are available from local, independent booksellers, as well as online. She is a happy doodler of UrbanSketchersBend.
