I am a writer who lives and teaches in Arkansas.

Early posts in this blog chronicle trying to build a tiny cabin in rural Arkansas. Although the tiny cabin never quite came to be, I’m still trying to live simply and live better to help the earth.

I continue to blog about personal reflections on family, motherhood, and travel.
