hello hello

Have you seen this quote before?  I love it:

On some hill of despair, the bonfire you kindle can light the great sky--though it's true, of course, to make it burn you have to throw yourself in. --Galway Kinnell

It reminds me of my favorite Hemingway quote, about how writing is easy, all you have to do is sit down at the typewriter and bleed....

I just thought I'd check in and share a few good books.  A good one can carry you through a lot.

Here are three of the best I've read so far this year:

Heft by Liz Moore

Faith by Jennifer Haigh

The Fault in Our Stars by John Green

I also would like to own this magnet.  It's me in a nutshell.


See you soon.
