Review: Gramicci (and Palma) and Sabbatical

Hi folks,

I'm off to a writers' colony, the amazingly pesticide free and organic Hedgebrook, to be exact. (Colonies, where they basically feed you and nurture you and try to get you to write, are great, but most aren't organic, and this one is accommodating my wheat/dairy thing. Yay!)

And I'll be packing my amazing Gramicci organic hemp/cotton Sierra t-shirt. It already feels broken-in, like it's been washed 10000 times, and there's lot of charming details, like raw seams. If there's anything I like, it's being comfy whilte I write.

And the shirt is accented by a necklace from the Palma Collection. More on their sustainable jewelry later.

So this means no email, no phone, but if you want to send me stuff or post an oldfashioned letter:

Hope you get some good writing done! Looking forward to another novel from you! I've been reading Francesca LIa Block and Banana Yoshimoto lately...but would gladly set them aside for a new one from you :)

oh, I am so excited for you! Right now, my creative brain is living vicariously through my artist friends' lives, so enjoy this time and I can't wait to hear/read about it!

Of Fly Catchers and hidden lakes.

Of sleeping lizards and morning dew.

It is of birdsong and misty dawns

and fleeced clouds floating in a still pool.

The waters ripple awake in the gathering morn.

The first water birds head out for the far shore.
