I like her openness and vulnerability. I like her writing, which ranges from essays to advice, to poems like the one below. And most of all, I like her heart. I’m guessing you will too!

    Whew child! Those same eyes survey the wastelands and see a river running through it. Beautiful piece!

    Such a beautiful poem. It is very particular, but speaks to something very universal at the same time. Thank you for introducing us to this gifted writer.
