If a relationship is founded on love it doesn't end

The new record started out being about loss, but it's morphed into being about how relationships go on even though one person is not in a body anymore.

I have learned to be steady in my course of love, or fear, or loneliness, rather than impulsive in its wasting, either lyrically or emotionally.

It's a little dangerous for me to get outside myself and think about how I want people to see me.

Documenting one's life in the midst of living it is a strange pursuit.

I was down with Lucinda Williams and Mary Chapin-Carpenter. We did an acoustic tour, just the three of us, three chicks and three guitars

As I started writing about loss and grief, I was taking what felt unmanageable and using my songwriting, my sense of poetry and discipline, to try and make it manageable.
