Kelly Stonelake is suing Meta for what she describes as a culture of sexism, harassment, and retaliation for speaking out. I wrote about her case which will feel relatable for anyone who’s tried to speak truth to power. lyz.substack.com/p/a-woman-is...

My first time going to the luminary loppet. Fresh snow was a bonus! Music, skiing, good friends and beauty. Exactly what I needed! I love Minneapolis!

When I started submitting to literary magazines in 2021, I had no MFA, no literary connections. Since then, I've had 100+ pieces published in lit mags. I've learned so much, and I love to share what I've learned. Join me for an info-packed webinar: shorturl.at/ag6Tp

I am serious about my Christmas tree, always! Tell me, friends, how many lights have I strung here? Note: it took more more than five hours and one blown fuse to make this magic happen, and despite the many applications of aquafor, my hands are a mess! But it is so worth it!

"Look, I don't know much, but I know these things uncontrovertibly and inarguably: One: stories matter waaaaay more than we know. Two: all stories are, in some form, prayers. Three: love is the story and the prayer that matters the most." -Brian Doyle These words have been comforting.
