Dahti Blanchard has been a Jill-of-many-trades: author, teacher, musician, doula, librarian and unschooling parent (of two now-grown children) to name a few. She lives in the Pacific Northwest with her husband and a menagerie of very old cats, dogs and horses. Approaching middle age (she plans to live to 120 years of age--you do the math) she has, in recent years, discovered her inner athlete and spends as much time as possible running, bicycling, hiking and entering triathlons and duathlons that are "middle-aged women" friendly.
DREAM OF THE CIRCLE OF WOMEN takes place in the gorgeous Adirondack country of upstate NY on the Canadian border where Ms. Blanchard grew up.
