Sometimes poetry--words--give us a small, lovely look at ourselves. And sometimes that is enough.

Im working on a bunch of things with my daughter Emily. In some ways, shes a smarter and better editor than I am.

I have great respect for children. And I have great respect for their ability as writers.

Being married to a psychologist, I realize that I learn more from imperfections.

I never work from an outline, and often I dont know how the story will end.

Life is made up of circles ... Life is not a straight line ... And sometimes we circle back to a past time. But we are not the same. We are changed forever.

What is perfect? Journey, a thing doesn't have to be perfect to be fine. That goes for a picture. That goes for life....Things can be good enough.
