When she’s not writing, arts administrating and attending to her twin daughters’ well-being and education, Juno spends way too much time cooking, cleaning, and doing laundry, gardens in the summer, knits and sews in the winter, and dabbles in book arts. She plays a couple of instruments badly, likes to sing, doesn’t get to read nearly enough but binges when necessary, watches movies with the energy of an addict, listens to French radio, prays for Iran, speaks Italian poorly and French a little better, takes lots of photographs, bakes birthday cakes whenever possible, makes pretty good ice cream and panforte, likes the seaside, likes holding hands with her husband and doing any number of other things with him as well, is grateful for her life, her family, her community and the beautiful land she lives on.
