A thing can travel everywhere, just by holding still.

The Overstory by Richard Powers

I have a very short stack of books I recently placed on a stool in my living room. They are stories that I remember, that moved me so that I'm emotional about them. Having just completed @Jacqueline_Woodson's #AnotherBrooklyn, I think this stack of special books is where her soul touching story will find its place in my home. I'll need to see it for inspiration, motivation & comfort. #ImportantReads #BookGirl #Storytelling #WritersWrite #JazzyJoyceStaycation (at JavaVino)

Bookseller Adam has the following to say about today's new release of Exit West by #mohsinhamid: "Mohsin Hamid dares to imagine how we might live in a world ungoverned by borders and begins the urgent task of learning to love those around us, regardless of how different or similar, distant or near." #riverheadbooks #importantreads #nobannowall #refugeeswelcome (at Book Culture)

On carrying on - Technical.ly

In the wake of all this violence against Black men and women, how do a company and its employees cope? A look at how Technically Media is trying.

I'm so proud to work where I work.

When Juliana Reyes asked if she should write this piece, I said heck yes, EVERY organization regardless of its makeup should make space for conversations about ‪#‎BlackLivesMatter‬ and these kinds of hard conversations. If your company hasn't addressed the tragedies that are happening *every day* across the country, I urge you to talk with your leaders about making this space where you work. This is how we make change happen.
