Thank you for a great event last night. Karen Nelson discussing her new book and how she always starts with "landscape" as part of her creative process. Great to see Pam Houston, one of my favorite writing teachers!

"To seek out novel experiences at any age is to slow time by chiseling it into shapes ever more beautiful, and to mark it more deeply."

I love learning a new word! I found this one in the wild. Had no clue. @MerriamWebster to the rescue

Use it in a sentence: "The critic heaped CONTUMELY on the author's latest collection blah blah . . ."
Harsh!

Thank you for a great discussion focused on pain. @DrZoffness @Keplers
In her book, Dr. Rachel Zoffness talks about biological, psychological, and social aspects to pain. We can find new ways to heal, and our "pain alarm can be less high."

Loving this book. Bringing Daphne DuMaurier back into the present time. The stories travel to Venice, London, Crete, and more. She takes "unreliable narrator" to another level. @SimonBooks @StephenKing

"And yet to have claimed that a warm spring morning walking over earth carpeted with apple blossoms was somehow the same, substantively, spiritually, as a cold winter noon spent pruning, or a harvest evening heavy with the smell of juice and hay..." (Daniel Mason's North Woods)

I don't usually post about movies, but Sentimental Value combines a stunning visual and literary aesthetic. Here's the opening about the family house.

A moment we love from Joachim Trier’s ‘Sentimental Value’ (2025).
In the opening sequence, a diary-like voice-over from young Nora presents a century-old Oslo home as another character, a living archive of joy, conflict, silence, and memory.

Thank you @JudithOrloffMD "When you've done all you can, you must let go and surrender to what is meant to be. Otherwise, you just end up torturing yourself and getting nowhere."

There are many writers who also work in tech like me. We can still be shocked. Anthropic used pirated digital versions of millions of books and fed them into their LLMs. Look up your favorite authors by name, I just did. secure.anthropiccopyrightset…

Thanks to @Keplers for the great night discussing new books about Trans elders and Trans youth. Caro said: "Writing begins as a form of deep listening." And Nico's done 110 book events this year!

Two writers that I admire had corporate careers before becoming novelists.
Mohsin Hamid was a lawyer who worked in corporate law to pay off his loans, then at McKinsey.
Amor Towles worked in finance as a Wall Street banker in NYC for more than 20 years. @amortowles

Still thinking about this poem "How to See Deer" from our workshop on nature poems. Excerpt: "You’ve learned by now / to wait without waiting" Thank you Professor Didi! @didijacksonpoet poets.org/poem/how-see-deer
