"At the end of each day, when you’ve done your work, you lie there and think, Well, I’ll be damned, I did this today. It doesn’t matter how good it is, or how bad—you did it. ...At the end of a year, you look back and say, I’ll be damned, it’s been a good year."

"Curiosity is the genesis of empathy. Our job as writers is to ask why, why, why, why, and be doggedly interested in the multiplicity of possibilities rather than relying too surely on what we think we know."

Two helpful words to keep in mind at the beginning of any writing adventure are pleasure and spaciousness. ...Don’t start with a big idea. Start with a phrase, a line, a quote. Questions are very helpful. Begin with a few you’re carrying right now.

I’m not a nature poet, but I do love the company of plants. They are so expressive and patient. ... I can watch every movement of the gesture of a leaf uncurling through a week. I’m addicted to this slow performance. It reminds me that the human perspective is partial.
