On behalf of Hedgebrook I'll be talking joy, creativity, & community while dragging my bestie aka co-conspirator JP Howard w/me. It's Hedgebrook's 35th so expect clank clank 🥂& laughter. We'll be live here, fb, & YouTube. Attendees in jammies are welcome #hedgebrook

remember: for every public acceptance there are so many private rejections!!! today i got a sewanee fiction scholar & on other days i didn't get oxbelly or hedgebrook or tin house scholar. the story in my app has been making the rounds & gotten only 'close but no cigar's so far

So lucky to be spending two weeks in this cabin in the woods at Hedgebrook. It looks like something out of a fairytale. They have been so kind and accommodating so far—what a luxury. Hoping to get a lot of work done while here.

What a lovely morning. Sitting in my cabin’s little window seat, eating homemade granola and yogurt while waiting for my coffee to brew, with two manuscripts printed out and a whole day of writing and editing ahead. 😌 #Hedgebrook

Spring things 🐰🌸

Found a little robin’s eggshell on the trail today :) #Hedgebrook

Sit by sweet little waterfall, write a sweet little poem :D #Hedgebrook

“But all my life—so far—
I have loved best
how the flowers rise
and open, how

the pink lungs of their bodies
enter the fire of the world
and stand there shining
and willing...'
—Mary Oliver, from House of Light

4th Hedgebrook rejection! Truly excited for anyone who got a yes.

Do I know any nonbinary writers who've gotten into Hedgebrook?
