I think the best thing we can do for the moment is get together and make a plan. One plan might be submitting a proposal for NonfictioNOW. Proposals are due November 15th. We'll all get together in June and celebrate writing and community.

Some jobs I’ve done besides what I do now:
Independent author-editor-teacher
Trail crew worker
Park ranger
Wildland firefighter
Dispatcher
Housekeeper
Lifeguard
Newspaper reporter
Camp counselor
Oldest daughter holding everything together (or trying)
Also FWIW my brother “Joefish” died in June. I miss him every day. I’m not as sciency as he was but I will try to carry on his legacy as a voice for decency and truth on social media and in the world.
