You may have noticed the April posts are not happening, and March was pretty sparse, too. I do have a lot written in drafts, but I’ve decided it’s probably time I stop giving my best work away for free. While I was auditioning the various options (Ghost, Beehiiv, MightyNetworks) a few weeks ago, an absolute hail of difficult/exciting but very stressful circumstances took over my life, in addition to the avalanche of grief and worry every observant person is carrying when witnessing our world right now. Big things are coming. Exciting and positive things. But right now I have to take care of my body, which became so weak and dehydrated from being unable to tolerate any food or drink for nearly a week (medication did not help) that I ended up in urgent care. I am currently checking my phone every 30 seconds to see if the gastroenterologist is calling to schedule the first appointment.

In the meantime, be good to yourselves, each other, this planet, and the creatures we share it with.
