Publication Summary: I am here to write from my particularity into your particularity, to share my story and the lessons I am learning from the everyday, from headlines and fictional characters and my kids.
I’m here to write openly about what it means to be me—what it means to be a husband, to be the father of young children and estranged teens, to be a progressive and a Protestant in the era of Trump.
I am here because I believe in love and beauty and twilight truths and because I want to do my part to recognize absence and celebrate presence.
Collaboration Opportunities
Cross-posting
Other: Linking to and acknowledging others' works that may inspire my own posts
More Details from the Creator:
I'm just beginning to think through what collaboration might mean, but I don't think I'd want to do guest posting. I'm more interested in sharing cool things in Notes. Or in using the work of others to inspire my own work and, in those cases, prominently linking to the inspiring works in my own posts. Perhaps this could mean cross-posting. I try to write thoughtful personal essays that use the particularity of my life as a biological and adoptive father, a husband, and a progressive Protestant to speak poetry and truth that resonates with readers in their own particularities. I expect that collaboration would be with similarly minded writers, but I never know where the muse might be hiding--sometimes it can be a random philosophical observation or piece of art or historical fact, so I imagine that collaboration opportunities could be all around.
Collaboration Examples:
This is an instance in which I hoped to spark a collaboration of sorts by directly referencing how another writer's post sparked my own thoughts on Mother's Day and infertility:
