I have a longing for wilderness and for greenness. I wish I were a person who longed for animals, but I'm not.

One of my greatest anxieties as a mother is head injuries.

I HATE HALLOWEEN. This makes me VERY unpopular.

Lizzie Harris's Stop Wanting is an unflinching book about a girlhood filled with violence, doubt, vulnerability, and loss. These gorgeously crafted and hauntingly memorable poems are a bleak place full of life, prayer, and the kind of answers only poems like these can provide.

I'm fascinated by but afraid of animals.

Halloween means that young girls dress up in highly sexualized outfits that would never be acceptable if it weren't Halloween.

I really, really fear head injuries. But when people hit their heads in movies or fall down - I can't stop laughing.
