Dear VSC- From Jan 20-Feb 7 I attended a writing residency in Johnson, Vermont, at Vermont Studio Center.

That time I went to Vermont and finished writing my book, Yes/No Conversations with My Son. And yeah. It was awesome.

Mornings without Ewok We had to say goodbye to S's service/companion dog Ewok on Oct. 24, 2024. He had lymphoma and wasn't responding to the chemotherapy. It was heartbreaking and I miss him so. This is my letter to him.

Connect with me on Substack! I promise, all of the letters won't be sad.
