What I've Been Reading

"Don't ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive, and then go do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive." ~Howard Thurman

"There are a lot of us, some published, some not, who think the literary life is the loveliest one possible, this life of reading and writing and corresponding." ~"Bird by Bird" by A. Lamott

"If you think of your life as a composition and yourself as the artist, then anything you do--whether you are writing in your notebook or putting your baby to bed--is a creative act." ~"Writing Motherhood" by L. Garrigues

"...I started to write again. I did it for myself alone, not for anyone else, and that was the difference."

~"The History of Love" by N. Krauss

"Yet I do believe that, as mothers, we all walk a common path, through a rugged and ineffable territory of love and fury, exhilaration and exhaustion, self-doubt and self-discovery."

~"Mitten Strings for God" by K. Kenison
