A birder and naturalist, Shane has been writing for decades, occasionally surprising himself with something good. He publishes in various journals and has received awards in The First Yugen International Haiku Contest and the Vancouver Cherry Blossom Haiku Contest. He lives in Oregon with his partner and their combined family of kids, a stinky chihuahua, and a stand-offishly needy cat. He finds inspiration in the beauty of the Pacific Northwest, loves the birds, spiders, and profusion of green growth. He would love to start a Salem haiku group!
