Martini Metaphors
Found Poem from The New York Times Book Review; Sunday, November 18, 2018
New York Ladies: PARKER, Selected Stories By Dorothy Parker. Reviewed by Sadie Stein
Two New York broads of urban legend known as martini metaphors, too often
reduced to a quip on a coffee mug; chroniclers of contemporary New York
flapper highs and breadline lows. Downtown speakeasies rocked by
a hard-boiled world and…

Creative Voices: How Gardening Grows My Creativity
Creative Voices: How Gardening Grows My Creativity
People often ask me, “When do you write?” I know they want to know what time of day am I able to carve out hours at a computer to type up my column or blog post. They want to know if I wake up before the kids do, or stay up late past their bedtime (and mine) to crank out my latest literary project.

I was hopelessly devoted, in service to…

Creative Voices: Writing is a Healing Tool
Creative Voices: Writing is a Healing Tool
“How many of you have written in a journal?” I ask a group of 18 adults I have never seen before. A few of them raise their hands. “How about poetry?

Creative Voices: Finding Your Story as a Creative Parent
It’s funny what sticks out in your memory; seemingly trivial moments are often remembered with the greatest clarity.
