I’m currently expanding my creative thesis from an academic artifact into a book-length work.

Writing a book is a long slog, so I also write essays for the personal satisfaction and because it’s good practice to actually finish and polish a piece of writing and then, perhaps, send it out into the world. There are links to a few of my published essays here.

In addition to the book and essays, I write a monthly blog about the work of writing; wonderings inspired by books, podcasts, articles, anything really; and the nature I see out my windows.

I live in the Pacific Northwest with my husband and our Tortico dog-cat. I buy way more books than I’ll ever have the time to read. After yoga, walking in the forest is my favorite form of exercise.
