Karen Murphy spent ten years in the corporate world and twelve more as a stay-at home Waldorf mom to her children before remembering that she had really also been a writer all that time. Karen is the Lead Author at an upcoming green/eco site, and she writes Parenting Without a Manual at Work It, Mom and a column about special-needs parenting in Long Journey on a Short Bus at Imperfect Parent. Karen is also a channel (like a spiritual coach) and she recently moved to the Pacific Northwest. Her children still live in Pennsylvania, and Karen is now blogging her life here.
