Snail Mail in October + My New Book (opens the original)
Read excerpt
My next book has been conceived (!!) and is now growing its arms, legs and heart. It’s a very vulnerable and messy process and I love being there—listening for what wants to find its way through me onto the page. I’ve cleared my October to write an initial draft. Writing. Weaving. Wondering. One cloudy night (when all my ideas typically stream in), the book told me to let it travel and land in people’s mailboxes: one line at a time. Simply. For. Fun. So, here we go… Send me mail,
What’s Your Saturation Point? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
One day, she (she is me) woke up to the twin culprits of Volume and Velocity. They wore purple flashy capes and were responsible for the symptoms of information overload. We’d all been blaming the quality of the information: good, bad, neutral. But, on a blustery pink sky day in Montana, she discovered the quality didn’t matter. When information hit The Saturation Point in a human body, it all (even the good and hearty and heart-filled stuff) morphed and took on the tinge and smell of too much.
Peel Your Urgency Off (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’m sitting in my brother’s apartment on the bustling Lower East Side of Manhattan. Yesterday I stood around a fire in the rain in the quiet in the green of Vermont with 14 other women closing out a retreat.

Much quieter, but present, a consistent buzz. Close by, someone was mixing a pot of natural dye for wool; her pace st
Make Your World Smaller (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I would like my mouth to populate the world with different vocabulary. I have used the word “overwhelm” a lot in the last decade. For good reason. Most people alive in 2026 are overcome, over it, overdone, over-whelmed. I’m going to start weighting one of my favorite words—TACTILE—more: to tip the scales and box out the other word that has gotten way too much game time. Not in avoidance, but to unapologetically cast a spell. Tactile might be the magical ingredient that dilutes our chronic too mu
Bears Are Not in New York City (opens the original)
Read excerpt
My neighborhood is teeming with black bears. Not an exaggeration. On all my dog walks down and across and up the dirt roads, I come upon a bear. Last night, I was strolling at dusk and a neighbor pulled her car over to tell me that she was taking her sister (who was visiting) on a drive so she could see a bear. Seconds later, a big old male-looking bear bumbled across road from up the gully not far from us. Only 24 hours earlier, Bo Neve and I watched from inside as a small bear rubbed up agains
