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:
- Why grit is more important than IQ when you are trying to become successful
- Maria Popova’s favorite books of 2018
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.
Oh, thank you for sharing the bullet journaling article! I’m trying a hybrid planner this year… passion planner plus bullet pages in the back, and the article was really helpful. I’m just sort of feeling my way through it.
I need to read about the bookstore one! I know in my 30s it’s markedly different than 20s. And I agree about grit!
Happy New Year to you!
