We loved hearing you read all of With My Back to the World from start to finish! The lines, like Agnes Martin's, are clear and packed with intensity-it was wonderful to see the images while relaxing into your sustained read. @bronwentate.bsky.social and I were happy to host you!
Thanks to University of British Columbia and Green College, and The Whole Cloth Reading Series for welcoming me so warmly. Pictured here: Bronwen Tate, Elee Kraljii Gardiner, Alix Ohlin, Neil Aitken.

The first item on my 9-year-old's holiday wishlist is . . . cucamelons. A type of small cucumber that looks like a watermelon. She's the best.
Cucamelon
Plant cucamelon seeds in containers or raised beds, or in the greenhouse where they will produce scores of tiny, sweet, watermelon shaped cucumber fruits.
