a gathering of flowers, maine the way magazine

I have an essay published in Maine the Way Magazine in their Spring Issue.  My essay accompanies Greta Rybus' photography of the local flower industry here in Maine.  I loved doing the research for this piece, and speaking with the three women, all farmer florists, who I had a chance to talk to about their work.

knowing, for full grown people

My essay, knowing, is in Full Grown People.  It's about digging through my 70's childhood, raising teenagers, and a place in the woods down a long dirt road.

I feel incredibly fortunate to be published in Taproot Magazine's newest issue, GROW.  I write about child development and how we define, observe, and measure growth in our children and in ourselves.  And how we choose to tell these stories.

My copy of the issue just arrived today. I can't wait to dive into it.

If we use effective tools, the child reveals himself to all who will stop and listen to what he says, and who, with seeing eyes, will watch what he does.
