You can now find my Writing with Presence posts over on Substack, where my first monthly newsletter went up today. My monthly posts will focus on the rituals I create to help me write—and live—with presence.

Ritual connects us to our intuition. Ritual celebrates movement, however small. Ritual invites collaboration with the unseen. Ritual is accessible to all.

Perhaps you’ll want to subscribe and try these rituals. Perhaps you’ll be inspired to create your own rituals that honor the unique flow of your life.

Please note, you can subscribe without pledging.
