Anne Lauer
Anne Lauer has had too many jobs to list but in each she has enjoyed an intense relationship with the written word. “Basho” represents her first try at fiction and her first effort to share it publicly. In this story, she includes insight from her experience as a mother, a traveler throughout East Asia, and one with a keen interest in Japanese culture. She has another short story about adoption and a novel concerning a crime against a young child soon to make landfall. To those of you who read this, arigatō gozaimasu.
