“Writing is a concentrated form of thinking. I don’t know what I think about certain subjects, even today, until I sit down and try to write about them.”

A while ago, I started opening every talk by honoring a couple of my teachers. Two people who - inside or outside the classroom - particularly influenced my thinking/feeling about whatever I was talking about. It's become maybe the most rewarding part of my practice.

If you have the chance, make collage with your students. Easily some of the calmest, most meditative, and beautifully productive days. These in-progress images will lead to writing, too. It’s leading my students and I toward more multimodal work. @AngelaStockman @PaulWHankins

Do something that will give you joy today instead of doomscrolling. Support a small business! Write a letter to a friend! Walk outside and spot cute dogs. Buy a pound of prosciutto if you feel like it. Lots of options!
