Welcome to my website. I am a lawyer-turned-writer. In addition to the blog Roughly Speaking, I have written articles and essays for The Washington Post, NPR, USA WEEKEND, Yoga Journal, Writer's Digest, and Whole Life Times, among other publications. I also blog about yoga and mindful eating for WASA, and I’m a former "Ask a Blogger" columnist. While you’re browsing, you can view my articles, check out my bookworm page, or visit my writer’s retreat. You can also learn more about me or send me an e-mail.
One of my favorite writers, Anne Lamott, talks about how people can be soothed by writing. She says, “Think of how many times you have opened a book, read one line, and said ‘yes!’” That’s my prayer – that my writing will bestow the gift of YES!
