I am a voracious reader and every week I come across either a book, online piece or website I want to share with others. I’ve decided to curate these gems and highlight them on Friday. I hope you find these faves as insightful as I do.
- How to breakup with your phone.
- Use this strategy to stay calm under pressure.
- What is the point of journaling? My favorite piece of the week.
- I have forgotten how to read.
- Be micro-ambitious. Thanks to Jocelyn Glei for this link.
- A practice for when you find yourself annoyed by other people.
What were your favorite reads this week?
Welcome! I am a lawyer turned freelance writer, essayist, and editor. On staff at Literary Mama and the co-founder and co-editor of the literary journal, The Sunlight Press, my essays and reported work have appeared in The Washington Post, The Lily, Saveur, Civil Eats, Brain, Child, ESPN and elsewhere. I am currently at work on a memoir on grief and culture and how it provides perspective on life’s ordinary graces. I invite you to appreciate the ordinary with me. I hope my daily practice of seeing the magic in the mundane helps you celebrate and find more of these moments in your life too.
I find I’m all or nothing with my phone. It’s either glued to me, or I want to go HOURS without it. I’d love breakup advice! Or maybe just “taking space” advice.
