Thank you, Jenna! I love that you can see that and reflect it back to me. I'm not sure if I knew I'd done that. :)

Thank you for these beautiful quotes, Rebecca. Dillard and Oliver are favourites. Dillard has a way of writing which takes me out of my rational mind and into embodiment. We couldn't see the eclipse from South Africa, and it's wonderful to hear about it from you.

I love this, Rebecca! Thanks for letting me visit with your literary companions and witness the wild joy of your children. We could all learn a bit from the unrestrained joy of the young ones, I think. 😊

Have you read "In the Great Green Room," a biography of Margaret Wise Brown? It's really enlightening.

I have! I read it alongside Wild Things by Bruce Handy, and they informed one of the chapters of my memoir-in-progress. Enlightening is the right word. I'm addicted the vision of her writing desk in front of the Door to Nowhere.

Great minds, friend! I read that book by Bruce Handy too, and it primed me for the other. I am so glad to hear these are informing and enlightening your memoir-in-progress.
