Teachers & Inspiration

A place to hold the words, ideas, and questions that spur me along. A place to recognize the people & places that I learn from.

a practice of remembering


"I do not write every day, I read every day, think every day, work in the garden every day, and recognize in nature the same slow complicity. The same inevitability. The moment will arrive, always it does, it can be predicted but it cannot be demanded. I do not think of this as inspiration. I think of it as readiness."

—Jeanette Winterson, from Art Objects

“Your creations are meant to be friends, stewards of your ideas, companions to others’ fruits, and in conversation with the greater world.

When you create from that space, it’s much easier to get ideas, have a process that is delightful, and share your work with ease.”

-Sarah Gottesdiener, from the Moon Studio newsletter
