Ten years ago, I started telling my then 3 year old a story about a girl named Lisa. It started as these things do—it was bedtime, we’d finished reading our usual ration of books before it was time for lights out…but she begged for just one more story. And since I had already turned the lights off and my eyes were tired from reading, I made up a very short story about a girl called Lisa and her dog Pinocchio, her cat Horace, and her cabin on the side of a mountain.

In this timely Zoom webinar based on her most recent book, Kaitlin Curtice will talk about how we can live responsible, responsive lives in the presence of so much injustice. Daily we encounter the reality of war, oppression, and hate – reported from far away or happening in our own communities. We can feel powerless or discouraged because the problems are deep, widespread, and systemic. Curtice’s talk will reinvest us with a sense of agency and hope.

We all have ancestors. No matter who we are, those who came before us have brought us here, to this moment, to this life, and we interact with them on a daily basis, whether we realize it or not. In indigenous cultures all over the world, there are various ways to honor our ancestors, whether it's through spirit plates to honor them with food, an alter in our home that constantly reminds us of their presence, or simple daily interactions with prayers and lit candles.

Before we jump into this week’s newsletter about books and reading, I wanted to point you towards a couple of folks who are writing about this moment for our American friends in ways that I think may be helpful for you beyond the facts and news: is writing a series on Mother-Earth-Driven Politics, complete with practices for embodiment; came through with a good reminder on hope in wobbly times; and historian reflected on the events of the past weekend with wisdom about fighting authoritarianism.

My hometown of Winnipeg, Manitoba, has the largest population of Indigenous people in North America, something I am proud of. I grew up witnessing the lives of Indigenous Winnipeggers, but it wasn’t until I became good friends with two Native brothers in my high school youth group that my view of this people group, so prevalent in my city and province, changed. Indigenous people became more than an ethnic group to observe and live parallel lives with.

This week I finished my nature memoir,The Ghost Lake, and moved into the brief but intense self editing phase before I let it go to the editor next week and it ceases to be a book that exists entirely inside my head, and becomes something other people will read. Terrifying. The Ghost Lake has been a beautiful writing experience. But I’m ready to move forward to the next stage now, and it feels like a time in my life to make changes to my writing and working habits.
