I hope today you look at someone the way Pogie looks at me when I have a baked good.

Love is cool.

I finished the revamped opener and love how it turned out. We'll see what the alpha readers think in 6-7 days.

I am feeling super frazzled today, worried about a zillion things beyond my control, and basically the opposite of a stoic.

But there are mountains and cool bits of ice and right this second some snow coming down so I'm trying to lean into how lucky I am to live in this cool wintery place.

My emails & DMs every day in winter: You live in Maine? There must SO MUCH snow! You're wearing flannel because it's so super cold. I could never survive that.

Spoilers: I am wearing flannel.
There is no snow any longer where I am.
It's about 37F/3C now.

Big truth: I really really love it here.

This is happening in my town. And it makes my writer heart SO happy.

What is this?

Can you guess?

IT IS A LIBRARY ADDITION!!!

I'm pretty impressed by all the people who made this happen.

Trying to muster up the courage to touch my laptop after weeks of ignoring it. How did I do?? I feel like this was a good first try. I’ll try again…next week 😬 Have you ever taken a break from something and then been scared to start again?

This very fine Wednesday morning, I give you Mr. Murphy in a hat.

I hurt my eye the other night (it's the one I use to read with--my eyes have differing roles because my brain is funky like that) and it's making it a tiny bit hard to write/post/see.

But I can still see this big boy. <3

"It is a serious thing // just to be alive / on this fresh morning / in this broken world."

And that's how I feel this Monday. You?

The photo is just a little one I took this weekend in Acadia National Park in Maine (where I live).

This.
It already slightly feels like a party where I have walked in shyly, alone, and will be furtively shoveling onion dip into my gaping maw until I muster the wherewithal to say hello to anyone. But hey. Hi. Do I have onion strands in my teeth?
