“Tomorrow will bring a different mess,” writes Maria Koors in “The Optimist’s Almanac.” As I’ve prepared this Spring 2025 issue, I’ve been thinking about the messes that continue to pile up, both personal and shared. www.whaleroadreview.com/issue-38-spr...

Excellent article about the complexities of discovering previously unknown biological relatives.

SONG SO WILD AND BLUE launch is two nights away, Tuesday Feb 25, 6:30PM at P&T KNITWEAR, 180 Orchard Street, NYC!! 🚀 Can’t wait to talk about all things Joni and be in conversation with my dear @elizmccrack.bsky.social (registration link in comments)

Happy pub day to @caseymulliganwalsh.bsky.sociall! Hers is a story of loss and grief, of a painful struggle to keep a family together, and a mother’s excruciating heartbreak. But it is, above all, a story of endurance and resilience, of faith and love—the faith that love is abundant and enduring.
