Things I love: poetry and precise words, gardens in bloom, photography, geography and culture and a sense of place, thunderstorms, letterpress artwork, knit objects, earth tones, simplicity, quiet joy, finding balance, being here now.

I write about teaching, my upcoming wedding, and starting a family. I write about my mortgage, my zoo of pets, and writing groups. I illustrate with photographs, trying to take care in making the ordinary just a little more extraordinary.

Thanks for taking the time to see my little corner of the internet.
