Fact: I like to move my feet around a lot.

So, what are you doing during this gorgeous weekend? Do tell.

The Opening Lines of My New Book…


October 8th, 2008

Jeanette Winterson is my favorite. Her books are totally gorgeous. I just started reading Gut Symmetries, and the way it starts is so awesome:

November 10 1493. Einsiedeln, Switzerland. Sun in Scorpio.
First there is the forest and inside the forest the clearing and inside the clearing the cabin and inside the cabin the mother and inside the mother the child and inside the child the mountain.

Today’s Honey: October 1, 2008


October 1st, 2008

It’s been a while since we’ve had some good honey. I love this dance and song, so I wanted to share it with y’all. Emily Shock and Applause Studios are an inspiration–every routine tells a story in the most beautiful, intricate way. I’m Amanda Gravel, and this is what I like.

Song: Near to You by A Fine Frenzy
