James - truly enjoy reading your work. You have a real gift at the craft, an ability to create imagery and transport the reader to the place. I appreciate the vulnerability in your writing as well. Enjoy the season of stillness and look forward to more of your writing in the new year.

I appreciate the reminder to find stillness in the madness that has become holiday season in this modern post-myth world. I lit a candle for the new moon the other day... Something I always want to do but forget. I too am planning to not miss the Solstice. Easy to miss it when everything is commercial christmas everywhere. One thing I enjoy about your writing is the juxtaposition of the micro and the macro... In your book and in your posts. It works just like defamiliarization. Stretching my brain so far that I experience the world more deeply. Looking forward to more of your writing in the New Year! Enjoy the silence!
