I’ll be reading a new piece at Seattle’s Lit Crawl on Oct. 27. It’s about the things we cannot leave behind. I’ll be reading with other talented parent writers as part of an event called Father, Mother, Other. Please come hear us!

Father, Mother, Other

Parenting is not all coziness, cookie baking, and watching them score soccer goals. There is spilled milk, endless chauffeuring, and dark holes in which we nearly lose our sense of self, or do. Local writer parents Sonora Jha, Theo Pauline Nestor, Dave Sanders, Nancy Schatz Alton, and Natalie Singer-Velush will read from brand new works that explore parenthood, lineage, love and longing.
