Going through pics from NYC and the Hudson Valley last week. This was taken in Cold Spring on Saturday. Thanksgiving travels and precious time with the fam made it hard to write for a few days, but the book is back on top of my priority list. 500 wor

I stumbled across this big guy on a Cape Cod beach, when I was just starting #thenightofthewhales. It was during COVID, off-season and cold, so we had the place to ourselves. His family tree goes back 400 million or so years. But now, he is considere

It’s been awhile since I’ve posted. There is so much work to do between The Beginning and The End of a book!!!!

I’m deep in the middle of #thenightofthewhales — trying to stay on course. Some days (most days ) it’s hard

Leaving #NYC is always bittersweet. It’s such an inspiring place for a writer. Last night, I attended an event with Pulitzer Prize-winning author @lizstroutauthor (!) and picked up an autographed copy of her new book for the train ride home. Bu

Start with @therealmargaretatwood , throw in a little @lee_minjin , and top things off with @vvchambers and you’ve got the recipe for an INCREDIBLE night. So lucky to share the experience with @savannahholzwarth and @mikayla.holzwarth ❤️ #soul

In writing an allegory about climate change, I’m constantly thinking about how to strike a balance between educating readers…and engaging them. How much info is too much info? At what point do real world facts drag down a fictional love

Took a few days off to take in one last big gulp of summer. Leaves are already changing in the #adirondacks

I am really thinking hard about the last pic of sunset/ducks, and how to put the experience into words. When I figure it out, I'll let you kn

You know that clanging sound that sailboats make when they're moored in a harbor at night? That's what I am trying to put into words today. Using this pic from our recent trip to #longisland for inspiration.

We just heard a plane doing acrobatics over our house in #roc. Turns out, the pilot was writing a chapter in somebody’s love story ❤️

This is what 35,000 words looks like. I still have a lot of work to do, but it’s starting to feel like a book. 😅

Part of #thenightofthewhales takes place in Manhattan, where I’ve been writing and researching this past week. I took breaks for field study — trying to find natural beauty in unexpected places. Nature that wasn’t paved over, manicu
