So, this Sunday the Upper Arlington Library in Ohio is bringing out to do a talk and I’m very excited about it but also really nervous because I haven’t accepted many speaking gigs in the last five years, in part because I’m self-conscious about a nervous tic that I’ve developed that you’ve no doubt noticed ..read more

Every once in awhile I share the weekly letter I send out from my drawing substack because not everyone understands how to sign up (hi mom!) and so they can read it here. This is one of those days: Dear friend. This week I was feeling a combination of helpless and full of rage and ..read more

This isn’t a real post…it’s just a little celebration because I haven’t had enough of those lately. Yesterday I got a copy of Furiously Happy translated into Indonesian and it feels so surreal.

Every so often I write something on my newsletter about art that I think you might want to read even if art is not for you. Today may be one of those so I’m sharing it here just in case: It’s a hard time to be an empath out here, y’all. I suspect many of ..read more

(Sorry I’ve been MIA. This week has been really hard. Sending love to anyone struggling.) Last week we got a letter from our HOA chiding us that our Halloween decorations should have been removed in November, and that we would be fined if we didn’t remedy the 12-foot skeleton on our porch by today.

Last week I shared my list of books I read in 2024 and someone asked me my favorite, which I can’t do because that’s like picking my favorite child. Except harder because I only have one child. But if you see it here on this video, I liked it. I don’t review books I don’t ..read more
