A Charm of Finches is the most important book I ever wrote. Steffen Finch is a psychologist who uses art therapy to counsel male victims of sexual assault. The audiobook is brilliantly narrated by @darreneliker.bsky.social. Please look and listen. And maybe learn. 🫶

So important! And for other professions under siege, too. Keep all flames alive. When all else fails we can always rest on @whysharksmatter.bsky.social’s boundless energy.
