Grief doesn’t wait for the perfect sentence. It shows up in fragments, in silence, in the spaces between words.
If your heart is heavy but your pen still moves, this one’s for you.

A comforting object, a box of tissues, a timer, maybe even a quote that reminds you why you started. It’s not about perfection, it's about presence.

Between presence and absence, memory and silence. Grateful to see "Schrodinger's Call" in Naugatuck River Review. It's a poem written in the wake of my father's passing. 💞

A hand holds open a book displaying the poem "Schrödinger's Call" by Maudie Bryant, published in Naugatuck River Review. The poem describes receiving a voicemail about a father’s passing, blending the moment of ordinary work tasks with the shattering weight of loss. A white label across the page reads: “New publication in Naugatuck River Review.” Poem Text: Schrödinger’s Call The first, I let ring. Just one more thing, I thought, just one more click before the world cracked open. I was still smoothing out the creases of a new day, the office barely awake— the computer’s hum a soft rhythm, my fingers clicking in time to a task I was sure would be done before the second round of rings. But the second came fast, I let the voicemail unfold in the silence, the words coming slow, like they had to work up the courage. “Call back,” it said, and I knew without knowing that something had shifted— something I’d never recover. I dialed the number with the same fingers that had just typed another email, clicked another box. Then, the words. “Your father passed.” I sat still as if the world had paused with me, as if the space between those words had been stretched so thin that I could feel my father both here and not here at the same time. The task, still waiting, the screen before me suddenly distant, a room I once knew— but didn’t belong in anymore.

New post on Ollie the Alkhemist; on the strange, often silent part of grief: paperwork

Wills. Death certs. Next of kin forms. Stuff you don’t expect to be handling in your 20s

If I could bring back a dinosaur, I’d bring back my mother instead. Grief rewrites every what-if. Sharing a quiet moment with Ted Kooser’s poem Mother as I near a year without the woman who nourished my life.

Forget the Dinosaur
Daily writing prompt If you could bring back one dinosaur, which one would it be? View all responses If I had the power to bring back a dinosaur, that would mean I could bring back one person. So forget the dinosaur, I'd bring my sweet mother back, and that is all. Here's a poem about by American poet, Ted Kooser, called "

Grief has a way of sneaking up on us. In this week’s episode, I read a microfiction that captures that feeling, and talk about the story—and loss—behind it.
Plus: writing tips from Ursula K. Le Guin.
