A Guest Post by Angela Chenus Food is a lot like love in our house, really. There are dual forces butting up against each other with a surround sound of other voices chiming in with votes no one gave them. That would be the five children. Giving my child PB & J sandwiches after...

Guest Post by Jennifer Lee I watch my farmer-husband cut the onion, in the same methodical way that he carves rows into fields each spring. Outside, shadows stretch long across the yard. My man’s stalk-stubbled fields hibernate under snow. His hands crave work, even when acres sleep. He had announced it to the whole car...

Here’s a kickin’ “What is Eating You?” guest post by M.A. Brotherton – I have an unhealthy relationship with food. I do, it’s true. It’s a by-product of growing up in suburban United States with parents that were both fairly poor themselves in their youths. I never really had a chance to even learn what it...

The following podcast is a guest contribution, part of the September “BIG QUESTION” series, asking “What does America Want?”
Americans are also human. Theoretically.
So expanding the question “What does America want?” today are writers and Pureland Buddhists Fiona Robyn and Kaspalita, who were kind enough to dedicate their weekly Tuesday podcast to the question: “What does humanity want?”
Please enjoy the podcast, here or at their lovely blog, which is simulcasting today. And comment on.
For those writers in the world, you might also enjoy their wonderful writing community, “Writing our Way Home.” I know I do.
Thanks Fiona and Kaspa!

I find myself slipping. I know I shouldn’t look down on that other person, but it’s all too easy to do it. I see a man sitting in his car in a parking lot with his engine running for several minutes at a time. I think of wasted fuel, money and burned petroleum added...
