Earlier this month, I learned that River Teeth's Beautiful Things series had nominated my essay, "On Massachusetts General Hospital Reaching Out to Schedule Your Covid-19 Vaccine," for the "Best of the Net." Only two essays of the 52 published that year were selected, and I was honored that mine was chosen. You can sign up to receive River Teeth's Beautiful Things in your inbox every Monday (for free!).
I had the pleasure of working with Short Reads to publish a reprint of one of my flash essays, "This Washcloth," which was featured earlier this month. The illustration is by Anna Hall. Short reads is a wonderful new publication that delivers a flash nonfiction piece to your inbox each Wednesday (for free!) if you want to subscribe.
The Keepthings recently published a micro essay on my first husband Steve's mango vanilla shave cream.

I love teaching community writing workshops, and when I get to hold space for caregivers, it's especially meaningful for me. This fall, I am partnering with the Dempsey Center to offer a writing and journaling workshop for cancer caregivers, something I wish I had been able to access when I was caring for Steve. The workshop is being held virtually on December 7, 2023. You do need to be a Dempsey Center participant to sign up for this workshop, but you can learn more about the workshop and find out more about the Dempsey Center offerings and becoming a Dempsey Center client here.
