I talked with Dave Miller @opb.org about my reporting on open adoption and what it was like growing up as a transracial adoptee in Oregon. Thanks to Think Out Loud for having me back on the show! You can listen here:

Hedgebrook is a magical wonderful place that has stayed with me! I hope your app is successful!

There are people who got COVID at Bread Loaf who did all, if not most, activities outdoors. The upset and surprise is also about Bread Loaf's policies, cover-ups, and gaslighting (+ excommunicating) of COVID+ attendees. And the failure to protect vulnerable people once the outbreak happened.

Thanks for posting this. I contracted COVID there and was excommunicated by staff like all the early COVID+ cases. My COVID recovery included emotional recovery as well, and it hurts every time I see someone covering up what happened. I lost a month of writing and health to that conference.

I really loved it there! Hedgebrook is a special place!
