Blog postEvery weekend I go walking along the Santa Fe River Trail, less than a block from my house. Today, the faded winter colors of bark and branch were punctuated by some surprisingly bright natural and not-so natural elements.

Blog postI watched two movies with women protagonists this weekend. The films couldn’t have been more different, but each in its own way, was a discerning moving portrait. Both women are asked to do the impossible and must find the strength to command their universe. In ARRIVAL, linguistics professor Laura Banks—played by Amy Adams—is asked to put … Continue reading "Two Women, Two Films: ‘Arrival’ and ‘Jackie’"

Blog post"I was interested in this idea of men and failure," director Jodie Foster has said of her new film, "Money Monster." In the moment when Clooney understands that the world wouldn't pay to see him live, his character is allowed to fail, and that sets up the very interesting dynamic of what ends up essentially being a buddy movie, showcasing the theme of men's failure and how women have to be the cool-headed, brave, fixers.

Blog postAt night I come home and long to dip into a very different time and place. I started reading Barbara Tuchman's, "A Distant Mirror" out loud just to hear her descriptions and research of the lives of the family, Coucy, in the 14th century. A time so very different from ours, and yet, so similar.

Blog postWhat word is there for the rebirthing of memories that open onto each other like the branching of wood from an old elm tree? Evocative.

Blog postMy wolf fetish is my writing fetish. It pulls in the power for me to make writing happen. My wolf fetish was on my desk, patiently watching as I finished "Dizzy Sushi." And here, at an event for writers, I met the man who carved it. I knew it was him by how my fingers fell into the stone as it was passed to me, how it felt in my hand, how it was calm and accepting. My fetish had the same properties. Rough, old-feeling, like hundreds of fingers had held it. I even wrote his name on a pi
