On communion and quiet time, having a little time, and music v. words
On communion and quiet time, having a little time, and music v. words
ON PEERING INTO NEW DISTANCES, THE ART OF DREAMING, AND A TIPPED-OVER SENSE OF PLACE
On peeling away the invisible film, entertainment from our younger days, and listening when the grey hairs come calling
ON FAT LITTLE SQUIRRELS, DROPPING A REINDEER LIKE A HOT POTATO, AND BEING AS DENSE AS THE FRUITCAKE ON THE COUNTER
On Thanksgiving letters, the ostrich approach, and the time to start something
ON THE PERVERSION OF IDEAS, PLAYING DEAD, AND THE WORLD AS NOT YOUR OYSTER
ON MAKING THINGS HARD WHEN THEY COULD BE EASY AND KNOWING WHEN TO WALK AWAY
On destabilizing truths, what makes us thrum, and being there (or not) when it’s called
ON SHAMELESS GRANDMOTHERS, JUDGING A STORY, AND POSITIVELY TINGLING WITH EXCITEMENT
On Superstar week, stories like stories, and record-breaking snow
ON HOSTILE GESTURES, WHAT WE COUNT AS REWARDABLE TASKS, AND LIGHTENING THE COGNITIVE LOAD
On leaving breadcrumb paths, understanding our mysterious brains, and other kinds of work
ON NOURISHING THE HUNGER TO BE SEEN, WRINGING OUT THE RAG, AND THE DIFFERENT FORMS OF DOING
On aged shopping carts, debates in person and on the page, and topics not yet broached
ON OPENING NEW IDEA-ROOMS, HEARING FAMILIAR VOICES, AND MOURNING A LEGEND
ON WRITING ABOUT WRITING, SPACE BETWEEN PEOPLE, AND THE MANY SIDES OF WORDS
On three humans chirping, building muscles for working incrementally, and more about-ness
ON PERFORMING A CONTROLLED EXPERIMENT, CAPTURING A FRIENDSHIP, AND HOW THE BEST TIME IS ALWAYS NOW
On leaders with plans and compassion, pandemic peace and privacy, and sentences that keep their shape
ON TIME OUTSIDE OF CAPITALISM, LECTURING IN OUR DREAMS, AND A WEEK WITH A LITTLE VARIETY
