If you are old enough to remember Mother Earth News and Green Acres, you can begin to imagine how I live. Right now I am sitting by the woodstove keeping warm. This morning I hauled wood in for the day. Every once in a while I reach over and stoke the fire, add water to the pots on top of the stove to keep moisture in the air.
Furthermore, the few spare moments I have this time of the year, I spend planning my garden. I've ordered the seeds to start my tomatoes and peppers, I've got my red potatoes sitting in a dark place in order to eye up, and I have onions on the counter ready to plant. I noticed yesterday that my garlic is already coming up.
Beside pursuing a PhD. in Critical Literacies, I love creative writing, history, and politics.
I *really* enjoyed this. Powerful. Provocative.
