Creative. . . management. . . writing. . . living. May 25, 2012. I’m 2 months into a 3-month Tai Chi retreat-in-place. No wondering around Chinese mountains looking for strange guys in multi-colored robes (yes, that’s a typo, but perhaps it more precisely conveys what actually happens when one wanders around mountains). But we did make a commitment to train every day and to attend weekly 3-hour workshops. Chronicles from me and other TCers here. It's All One. . . Move. Where is the Tao? Right brain: writ...

February 15, 2014. VCR he tried to pawn off on me when he wanted the sleeker, newer model for himself. I am so different than he was. I am a mystery to myself, but thanks to my fierce and loving writing family that refuses to let go, some unspent potential is channeling itself through me. Happy birthday, Arnold. Very nice t...

Creative. . . management. . . writing. . . living. Aretha Franklin at Harvard. Harvard Commencement 2014 from behind a red ribbon. May 31, 2014. The role of marshal is largely ceremonial for alums attending their reunions. For those of us who work for Alumni Affairs and Development, the duties are largely of a hospitality/ushering nature. Right now, we are the face of Harvard, our leader told us. This year I was asked everything from, Where’s my mother? To Where can I sit for a view of you? I don’t know,...

Creative. . . management. . . writing. . . living. April 22, 2012. A Red Ruby Heart on the way to New Orleans. Sometimes a straight line is a curve. That’s Tai Chi talk. It also describes the path to a major US press taken by. Red Ruby Heart in a Cold Blue Sea. As the water got deeper, it got colder. My ears felt as if they were pressing against my brains, and I wanted to head back up in the worst way. But Bud grabbed my hand and we spiraled down, until he stopped and pointed. Astute readers soon made th...

Creative. . . management. . . writing. . . living. Urban Critters, Part Five: Market Lobster. December 1, 2013. The other day I posted a thought after staring into the eyes of the lobsters in the tank at the Star Market. The lobster tank at the supermarket: some fight to be on top, some are resigned to be the bottom, but we’re all in the same tank. Roar of the Tigress. Morgan probably sensed the turn toward the absurd, which made her follow-up post perfect: the official video of Rock Lobster” by th...
