Fostering conversations between unexpected groups of people.

Sharing one more thing I've been working on. This one is mainly for we SLPs but gives a sense of how stuttering therapy is shifting.

In this tight experimental form--between prose and poetry--I recall everyday moments related to mortality and life decisions. I may come back and noodle on this piece more, but putting this start forward for now.

In this piece, I follow the structure of Margaret Wise Brown’s Goodnight Moon children’s book to explore elements of change in the US.

This short piece is a reflection from a difficult day of caregiving which ended with a tiny act of generosity from a stranger.
