ABOUT JUDITH FITZPATRICK

Her work reflects her observations of the natural beauty of the landscape, her favorite beach and walking in the cranberry bog nearby. Judith has always written poetry to express her emotional life and reflect on her memories. She began writing poetry and stories in her fifties after returning to school to complete her education. For many years, Judith has been actively involved in a local garden club, finding joy in sharing her knowledge and the unique challenges of gardening on a peninsula.
