Freelance Writing Specialty Writing Interview with Karen Roman
Interviewed by Jenna Glatzer

Karen Roman is a freelance writer and editor based in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. To read some of Karen's favorite features or learn more about her services for businesses and writers, visit her website by clicking here
How did you first know you were a writer?
I guess I never really 'knew' I was a writer, but I always knew I was a reader. My father says he can't remember a time when I couldn't read. I remember reading the word 'riboflavan' off the side of a cereal box while I was still using a pillow to see over the edge of the breakfast table.
Words, both spoken and written, always fascinated me. I even remember the first time I heard the word 'delicious.' I was four years old and, while walking across the fields which separated her country home from mine, my new best friend described the cookies her mom made as "delicious" (with the obligatory lick of the lips). I repeated the word out loud, my tongue twisting around the delightful play of vowels. The cookies were an afterthought; to me the WORD was delicious. I guess that was the beginning of my love affair with the English language. It wasn't long before I wrote my first poem, as a present to the same playmate.
My family later moved into the city and I practically lived in the public library which was conveniently located right next door to our downtown apartment. The first genre I devoured was fairy tales, and especially folk tales from China and Eastern Europe. Next came classical Greek and Roman mythology, which remains my passion to this day. Stories by authors like E. Nesbit and C.S. Lewis were never far from my bedside; by age 8, I was borrowing the entire seven-book Narnia series at one time, because I loved them so. When I got Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings" for my 13th birthday I was in seventh heaven. After the fourth time through it I could read the whole trilogy within four or five days.

PREFACE
Please Note: This will be the last issue of The CAC Review until October of this year . That is, unless, someone else volunteers to take over an issue between now and then. All suggestions and proposals are welcome. Otherwise, starting in October, our next issue will focus on Partners for First Peoples Development in Trinidad and Tobago, a new, ambitious and multilayered organisational effort designed to revive, promote and institutionalise Trinidad’s aboriginal traditions and life ways. This body is not related to the Santa Rosa Carib Community of Arima, indeed, in many ways it is a departure from that body and in other ways an extension and expansion. The issue after that will feature, we hope, an interview with a Garifuna Webmaster on the subject of fostering and developing pride and identification with Caribbean aboriginality via the Internet. Lastly, we hope there will soon be an issue devoted to promising

Robert Mulder, electronic artist and educator, Kingston, Ontario. Skyharp: An Interactive Electroacoustic Instrument
Skyharp is a "virtual instrument" and sound installation designed to
collect visual and audio information from natural dynamic systems found in
selected outdoor environments. This information, converted to computer
data, is subsequently used to generate an electroacoustic soundscape
composition that is performed in real time within the surrounding
environment. The intention of Skyharp is to sensitize the audience to the complex
relationships between visual and aural elements within a specific frame of
reference. The name "Skyharp" reflects the aesthetic function of this
particular "instrument"; it can be played by the most primary of ecological
forces, such as the wave action of water, the revolving motion of clouds

Mus Ref ML 106 .G7 B56 1998 Use : Purpose to provide biographies of all the musicians and instrument makers employed by the English Court from the beginning of the reign of Henry VII in 1485 to the end of the reign of Queen Anne in 1714. Coverage : Includes not only the best-known musicians of the period, but also minor figures with little or no prior biographical recognition. Limited to the period 1485-1714 because information prior to this time is sketchy, and music ceased to play an important role in Court life after the death of Queen Anne in 1714. Organization Pros : Useful as a comprehensive guide to court musicians of the period. Relatively more attention is given to minor figures and those new to a dictionary entry.
