The Lantern Rats

By Glena Benson and Raynald Kudemus

I was born in 1952. I am a mother of four children and a grandmother to two grandsons. Ive been married twice, a widow now. My inspiration comes from the people around me. I have written other stories; I just have not published them. They say there is a time for everything. You have to be ready when that time comes. I must have been ready.

Being creative is how I spend my time. I am a quilter, painter (walls, mostly), an artist, a writer. I love to read fantasy, science fiction, and just plain fiction. My favorite stories are Companions and Dragons of Pern. I dont believe in smoking, drinking, or drugs. Life is too short to go about making it shorter.

I live half the year in Washington State; during the other half, I work in the Grand Teton Park behind the scenes.

When your little ones tell you stories, listen to them. They are where inspiration comes fromfrom building a birdhouse, planting a garden, or creating an imaginary world.

I was born in 1952. I am a mother of four children and a grandmother to two grandsons. I’ve been married twice, a widow now. My inspiration comes from the people around me. I have written other stories; I just have not published them. They say there is a time for everything. You have to be ready when that time comes. I must have been ready. Being creative is how I spend my time. I am a quilter, painter (walls, mostly), an artist, a writer. I love to read fantasy, science fiction, and just plain fiction. My favorite stories are Companions and Dragons of Pern. I don’t believe in smoking, drinking, or drugs. Life is too short to go about making it shorter. I live half the year in Washington State; during the other half, I work in the Grand Teton Park behind the scenes. When your little ones tell you stories, listen to them. They are where inspiration comes from—from building a birdhouse, planting a garden, or creating an imaginary world.
