I'm back from Alt Summit and talk about why I loved this year's better than any others, a new favorite graphic novel, and a $80 washable quilt I LOVE.

Today I'm talking about taking a month-long break from freelance, wishing my kids could go to school on the weekend (not all, just some. :)), and the most beautiful tweet thread I've seen in a long, long time. It's a short and sweet episode. Hope you like it!

Addendum: I didn’t love The Greatest Showman but I did LOVE the bearded lady and her powder ballad. WOW.

I talk about my beloved writing group, exciting potential freelance writing clients, my love of Trader Joe’s and turkey sandwiches, and two of my favorite recent YA reads. I tried out exercising and big surprise, it felt amazing. Can there be anything better than a SNL Skit making fun of The Bachelor?

I talk about my son's obsession with "making potions", attending Alt Summit in Palm Springs in February, my favorite podcasts right now, and my new favorite Masterpiece murder mystery. Thank you so much for listening!

The second stab at reading aloud a personal essay on motherhood. This one's all about watching my middle son play with toy beakers and mix dirt, water, and chalk into "potions". Hope you enjoy it!

Doing work I don't know how to do (but figuring it out), a watch that reminds my kid when to eat a snack (AWESOME!!!), Witch Hazel and rose water, and Boring Bachelor Season Arie. Wah wah.
