Excited to share my piece for @washingtonpost! I offer up my experience living in a small space and the creative solution that affords our rapidly growing children more privacy. It's not for everyone, and since you're wondering — yes, we still have sex. washingtonpost.com/home/2022/12/1…

At 8:32 am on May 18th 1980, the right flank of Mount St Helens, which had grown over 500ft of material, would slide off the mountain, uncorking a tremendous force of power that would forever change the landscape and the lives of those living near. PC Gary Rosenquist #43YearsAgo

Stay safe out there, Washington!

⚠️St Helens Climbers ALERT (thread): People in this photo are standing on 1800' of snow-covered AIR. This spot, just west of Monitor Ridge, is most frequented by climbers. A giant cornice forms every year at summit & can release any time. Do not trust tracks already present!

My family is always asking me what I am doing when I’m walking my indoor laps. Leave me alone people! Can’t you see I’m writing?

I’m looking for more #freelancewriter #friends. Come sit by me! 🙋🏻‍♀️

My best advice for #freelancers: befriend other freelancers in your field. My life/career are infinitely better because I have “colleagues” I can share my wins/losses and frustrations/excitements with! I have a lovely group I text with daily and some of us haven’t even met IRL.



One of the best things about being a home & garden #freelancewriter is the rabbit holes you fall into. I am now an expert on defunct fireplace design. Fave designs not included here: pet nook, terrarium, and tiny grow room. washingtonpost.com/home/2023/02/0…


In reviewing my 10-year-old’s messages to her friends, I discovered her bragging about downloading @Grammarly on her iPad. OMG, y’all. She is her writer-mother’s daughter. 😍


#Binders Do you cry when you write? Not because it’s difficult, but bc you’re feeling the subject deeply, all the way to your marrow? DH came home and I was plowing through a bag of licorice, crying and typing away. “What’s wrong?” “Oh, nothing! Just another day at work”

I am pleased to announce that I am no longer behind on everything. I didn’t catch up. I just decided that where I am isn’t behind 🥳


I need holiday reading. Please share a piece you wrote this year that you are proud of.


Which team are you on? 🤔 I’m Team Bing.

Now it's time to play the fun game Will My Invoices Be Paid Before Christmas?


Just sent off my Secret Snowflake gift. (Snow much fun!) Big thanks to @weischoice for organizing this. ❄️


Let it go, or make a joke? I never know what to do. #introvertproblems Why is communicating so hard!? 😝

I was just looking at writer's residencies and I found one that includes families. While you write, they provide creative workshops for your kids. There's childcare all day. There are children's beds in the room. There's SUPPORT. What a world. I legit cried.

I shouldn’t have to be making an ofrenda for my 10 year old daughter.


#HeyElon There is a difference between free speech and hate speech.


I could not love this more.
