Fall 2025

What am I up to right now? Currently, it’s time for college applications for my youngest. As a home educator, there’s a lot I need to document. And yes, there are typewriters in the mix, helping us.

This fall, I held several typewriter letter-writing events around Boston, Massachusetts.

I’m also working on a commissioned feature article of artwork, sketch pages, and story for Harvard’s quarterly magazine, Arnoldia: The Nature of Trees.

As I walk daily in Harvard’s Arnold Arboretum, I’m getting back to a frequent practice of nature journaling. Time spent noticing and recording. It’s a solace.

Can I build a version of an ‘attention cottage’? What might that look like amid life’s chaos?
