Postcards from Midlife
This blog reflects all the stuff that rises to the surface as I stumble imperfectly through life. Find field notes from the novel trenches, musings about art and stories that move me, and thoughts about pursuing craft as a middle-aged woman in a society obsessed with the hustle.
