Three simple approaches that will make our writing lives less frustrating and richer in countless ways. brevity.wordpress.com/2025/06/11/m...

The Subversive Joy of BookTok www.nytimes.com/2025/06/10/o... “To read for joy, for wonder, for emotional truth is to hold onto something deeply human. In a moment when the stories we’re allowed to tell and read are increasingly politicized, if not outright banned, that act feels quietly radical.”

Margaret is a (very fine) nature writer. I try also to focus on nature writing. But none of us can “stay in our lane” while authoritarian destruction is aimed at our neighbours. (By the same people who are also coming for nature, not coincidentally.) Grateful to Margaret for her non-nature writing.

'We all have “our rivers.” We have relationships with nature. Macfarlane’s book is a call to talk about those relationships more. Use the language of connection. Don’t just imagine a river is alive, but believe it.' bigthink.com/mini-philoso... #booksky #readingsky #mayreads #naturewriting

A Maya Angelou quote from this week's @jamesclear.bsky.social newsletter. "My wish for you is that you continue. Continue to be who you are, to astonish a mean world with your acts of kindness. The effect you have on others’ lives is the highest expression of your own." #mayaangelou #bekind #resist

For writers, artists, and anyone wanting to hone their observation skills, looking at a piece of art for an extended period is a great way to practice noticing. It's also a nice beauty break. #seeing #noticing #mindfulness #beautybreak #timeout #artsky #writingsky www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Lovely description of winter music of the ducks: 'But they were not all asleep, for I could hear them talking – a lovely, wild music belonging to the marshes and saltings, but oddly out of place so near to a busy town.' John Lockett writing in @theguardian.com #countrydiary in 1950. #naturewriting

Allison K. Williams' classes always reinvigorate my writing life, so I look forward to this! There's so much I want to accomplish in 2025 that I'm currently suffering from project overwhelm. I need some tools to get organized and stay focused. @allisonkwilliams.bsky.social #writinglife #writingsky
