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 make changes in life to be the very best version of you
- How you felt about gym class may impact your exercise habits today
- Kids’ birthday party presents actually do matter
- Shoppers are buying clothes just for the Instagram pic, and then returning them
- Low-carb diets could shorten life
- How to make friends as an adult
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.
That friendship article was SPOT ON!
That makes such sense about the gym class thing. There were things I avoided out of fear, and other things in which I was a fierce competitor.
