    I’m reading Murakami, getting increasingly frustrated with his portrayal of women and realizing that with that frustration, I am fulfilling the prophecy of my ninth grade English teacher. This is about that prophecy.

  • November Heart Talk

    A raw, personal post for Sunday. No big ideas or invitations for revolutions of the soul, just me and you. I call it heart talk.

about
