Devoted to the promotion of the environment and a reawakening of humanity's spiritual ties to it, Kaaren serves as a guardian of a local labyrinth and Tree Circle in England. Much of her work inspired by these themes can be found in Painting to Poem (2006), Leaves of Hope (2006), A Book of Graces (2009), Shades of Light and Dark (also 2009), as well as several anthologies. You can find her latest work on the prose and poetry webzine Ink, Sweat and Tears, to which she is a frequent contributor.

A
commended winner of the Fakenham
Poetry Competition in 2008, Kaaren has read at the Halesworth Fringe
Festival and other open mic events in the United States, the UK and
as removed as Australia. Kaaren's work often accentuates the Living Wheel of the Year, an English website celebrating Celtic festivals
and different aspects of nature culture.
