Some sabbatical musings that I finally wrote down. It's the first thing I've written that is nonacademic, and honestly I'm not sure it belongs on the internet. But here it is. https://t.co/0pUQmmTMyG
@davenuss79@add_hawk Thanks, Dave. I enjoyed listening Nguyen's book on some of these walks--reading was among the unexpected and welcomed outcomes of the sabbatical

"When I write, I use my body. I use all the sensory details of seeing, of listening, of smelling, of tasting, of experiencing tenderness and warmth and cold and pain, of noticing my heart racing and my body needing food and water, of walking and running, of feeling the wind and rain and snow on my skin, of holding hands. I try to infuse those vivid sensations that I feel as a mortal being with blood coursing through her body into my sentences. As if I am sending out an electric current. And when I sense this current being transmitted to the reader, I am astonished and moved. In these moments I experience again the thread of language that connects us, how my questions are relating with readers through that electric, living thing. I would like to express my deepest gratitude to all those who have connected with me through that thread, as well as to all those who may come to do so."

📊New study finds nearly 40% of U.S. veterans show increasing loneliness over 3 years. Being married/partnered and perceiving greater purpose in life emerged as key protective factors, while psychological distress and childhood adversity increased risk.
