November is our month dedicated to food, storytelling, and collective memory. My class encourages writers of all genres to write stories pairing food and memory. Join me for 4 weeks of sharing, remembering, and hopefully laughing next month! www.storystudiochicago.org/classes/clas...

All I can say is thank you. What a summer. What. A. Summer.

Tomorrow and thereafter: writing. A lot.
Today, though? Harvest, sunshine, and joy.

I’m trying to write a blog post about the parallels of amateur chicken ownership and first time “serious” novel writing… but all I can manage right now is this little post of a chicken thinking he’s gonna strut out of his coop. (He did not, but this photo is cool.)

Cousin gave me one of these things and a bunch of wood and now dry January is very cancelled.
