As am I, and I live in a landlocked state!

But I bet your landlocked state was once underwater... ;)

Oh, Mary Beth, I’ll go anywhere with you! “I hope to wield the gorgeous language of tides not as jargon, but as art.” In your hands, no doubt. 🤍

I am so excited about this project for you. And, well, for me, a mountain gal that gets a little sea-sicky just standing in the ocean. Can't wait to learn - want to share a photo of the tide table?

"700% more brainiac material than any memoir scene requires" feels so much like what is required to confirm one or two sentences in a manuscript.

There will be photos! There will be graphs! Probably still enough to make a mountain gal seasick, but hopefully not too much. I am glad you relate to that 700% statement, too. We all have these folders...

“Like the interface of the water, land, and sky that is the tidal zone, I write on this edge between embracing mystery but also wanting to understand as much as I can. “ you have always inspired me with your ability to express yourself in written word. I am right there with you on that edge .
