Mazel Tov on the new book!!! 🎉✨💛”A bruising grief” What a powerful phrase. I love how relatable this poem is—oh wait, all your poems are. I thank you for putting words to the kind of heart pain that has to do with the fear of losing someone precious. I understand this, both relating to an intimate beloved and also children. I don’t know if you have any children, human or fur or otherwise, that is when I have felt that heart bruising the most, standing at the door as my 20 something go off driving in the Bay Area and just praying that whatever guardian angels and their own intuition can keep them protected, will do so, and bring them back to me time again, whole, happy. Thank you!
I don't have kiddo's, but I have had furry children, and I can understand this a little. Though I think it is a very particular love that my both my parents modeled for me. Thank you for sharing this!
We have lots of book signings, though not one at Battenkill. If you'd like to come to Vermont, we'll be reading & signing books at the Northshire Bookstore in Manchester, VT on Saturday, 5/10 at 4pm. We're trying to spread the indie bookstore love around as much as we can! xoxo
congratulations, james! what a wonderful project to breathe into the world. thanks for celebrating our community and providing the microphone from the mighty to the many

Pre-ordered and can’t wait! ❤️
thank you, my friend!!
I'm so excited for this, James. And what's a beautiful collaboration to do with your husband!
Very exciting! I'm looking forward to the new book. I regularly revisit my copy of How to Love the World. 📕 💕
Oh, I'm so glad you have a copy of that book! It has given birth to many anthologies since!
Do you have a book signing event planned at Battenkill? I feel a road trip coming! 😊

Beautiful, James. I'm very grateful for the compilation that you and Brad have created together. Thank you for birthing this book into the world.
Thank you, Karly. We appreciate your kind words.
