I love all Barbara Kingsolver‘s writing, and I appreciate her reflections about the noise in her brain. Slicing offers me the time and responsibility to sit down and be still with my thoughts.
Write your slice, share it in a comment, and head over to others’ blogs to read about the noises in their brains that make it to the page.
I am finding summertime peace amidst the heat and a lingering infection.
