I support women’s rights and loathe narcissists. I also write books. I talk about writing. And then I eat my feelings about writing. It’s the circle of life 😊
I can’t paint a crosswalk on my street, but I can make a rainbow.

In a text thread my husband was on, a guy joked that he was going to run over “angry” protesters. My husband said, “My wife is out there and she’s not angry. She’s standing up for people‘s rights.” Yesterday was my first protest and every honk and peace sign has fueled me to fight even harder.

Use your voice to uplift and support, not create more hate 💕

I sent my 5th letter this month to my representatives.
Our voices matter. Send them emails. Leave them voicemails. Use the 5 calls app.

Take action. It is the ONLY way we can effect change. Photo of one of my butterflies to remind you that one change--one plant--can make a big difference.

PBS made it super easy to tell your representatives not to cut funding. Go to this link, add your name and address, and they send the letter for you. protectmypublicmedia.org/rsc-emails/

Because nothing makes you feel more peaceful in the morning than eating breakfast under the sea. For a little while, I forgot about the ugliness going on in the world.

I ordered five different kind of flower seeds to start next week because the only thing I’m looking forward to in this chaotic chapter of this country is providing more beauty for bee’s and butterflies.
