I eat naivety for breakfast
The flowers are coming up. Spring is here. The skies are both less and more temperamental. I’ve been busy in a strange way, so many writing projects I forget, sometimes, whether I’m coming or going, lots of works-in-progress but nothing finished, feeling as though I don’t exist, trying to be patient. I thought I would … Continue reading I eat naivety for breakfast
I’m teaching a class on kindle publishing in Portland, on February 23rd
Learning to publish my work for the kindle platform has been a fascinating, frustrating, occasionally exhilarating process. I've learned so much in the last month, both from others and from trial and error myself, and now that my book is steady on Amazon, with a solid ranking and more than a month of consistent, daily … Continue reading I’m teaching a class on kindle publishing in Portland, on February 23rd
the soup
I don’t know what I’m looking for, tonight. I’ve spent too much time on the internet, poking around. I forget where I am, I let go of my intentions, I end up in a small room and no one else is there. I wonder where everyone else has gone; but then, they are nowhere; in … Continue reading the soup
the watershed of goods and other things that mean nothing/everything
I have sinned; my sin is my impatience. That is not my only sin, it is my greatest sin.

the nature of reality and the broken hearts club
I’ve been thinking a lot about something lately, and I think I’ve figured something out. Here’s a question- which of these statements is true? A. Oppression is real- things like racism, sexism, classism etc. systematically work against human beings in every minute of their everyday lives in order to maintain and uphold the patriarchal, white … Continue reading the nature of reality and the broken hearts club
LEEP
The rain was coming down in cold sheets all day today, and by mid-morning I had no choice but to go out into it. I’d stayed up late the night before reading the New Yorker on my new kindle, and potato had woken me up early, making sad puppy noises from his bed on the … Continue reading LEEP
