I write
fiction, non-fiction, personal essays and poetry
I write
about grief and rawness, memory, dementia, love in all its many and complicated forms, finding joy in the midst of loss, gratitude in the midst of grief, mothers and daughters, letting our spirits guide our way through the dark times, hearts breaking open to the wild beauty and brokenness of the world
