i plan to stay informed, but don't want to be constantly bombarded by the fascists' latest episode of stupidity, racism, hatred, ignorance and incompetence bc i cannot function if i'm always angry and outraged. so FYI that you can go under settings and mute certain words.

eternally grateful for the time, space, community, and radical hospitality from Hedgebrook ❤️

at the airport, heading to Hedgebrook. beyond grateful, excited, nervous—all the feels. the world is hell and celebrating personal stuff feels weird, but i’m holding on to every piece of joy and my writing life as tightly as i can.
