Here’s to “conceiving your own mythology, hounding lessons and stray stories, and chiseling away at stone with the prospect of one day turning to see it has a face.” What a beautiful way to describe a writing project. I can’t wait to read the finished project—your art, your heart.

This line...

I am skulking about in my old mountain town, my mother’s medicine cabinet, as I drink my morning coffee.

Friend, your writing is so vital. It has a pulse. I am so lucky to know you and to read your heart on the page

Jayne! I've been eagerly waiting for another post from you and I love so many lines in this, maybe most especially, "Not knowing is fitful." And the wish to be as a root in young, glacial soil. (Also I'm thrilled that cold water sparked words for both of us!)
