These days, my favorite work keeps landing at the intersection of doodles and words. Not that this post was work. This was just plain fun.
I love this word that I didn’t know existed until a couple of days ago when I stumbled upon it while reading. (Coincidentally, it rained that day and the petrichor was sweet.)
I sometimes hear people complain that the English language falls short.… Read more
As promised, I’m launching a new regular feature on the blog: Obscure Word Doodles! Last month, I started asking for word suggestions and, as usual, you came through. I have about 25 weird and wonderful words that I have no idea what to do with.
Actually 24 now, since here’s the first one, a word suggested by Ray Wilcockson. (Thank you, Ray!)
Let me know what you think, and feel free to leave more word suggestions in the comment thread.… Read more
As part of my ongoing quest to explore what it means to live a creative life, I periodically invite kick ass creatives to come play with us on the blog.
Today’s episode:
Creating your way past rejection, swimming for inspiration, and the power of wishing the world a good morning.
I’m so excited this week to be interviewing New Yorker cartoonist, writer, and performer, Liza Donnelly.… Read more
We’re sending February off with a big, loving, doodly bang! Thank you to everyone who sent me doodles in February, especially the doodles for this post, which I repeatedly forgot to remind anyone about. I’m so grateful for all of you who, when I say, “Come play!” jump right in, with your whole big, colorful, gorgeous hearts and souls.

Happy Valentine’s Day!
As promised, we’re throwing a doodle party here. Last week, I invited everyone to doodle love with me, and I’m so delighted by the response, especially because I know for many of you, it’s an act of bravery to show your doodles in public. So thank you for being brave, for answering my call to PLAY, and for ensuring that I wouldn’t be standing here in my party hat all alone.… Read more
An Invitation
Mark your calendars! Next Thursday is Valentine’s Day, and while my ambivalence around the day prevents me from marking it with chocolate and over-the-top romance, I did last year demonstrate my love for all of you with a book-title poem.
This year, there will be doodles! I’m doodling love all month, and my first love-doodle party will be next week, on Valentine’s Day, when I’ll post all the doodles I’ve drawn so far.… Read more
For the last two months – as befits the end of one year and the beginning of another – I’ve been busy taking stock, planning anew, launching, assessing, guessing at things I don’t know, learning under-fire.
Just like you, I’m sure; ’tis the season.
Last week, against a deadline, I designed, doodled and ordered two new sets of cards for my Etsy store – an “Own Your Weird” set of postcards, and a set of greeting cards based on quotes from The (fearless) Love Essays.… Read more

It’s time for a new 30-day challenge, and here’s what I’m doing:
30 days, 30 acts of (expansive, unabashed, downright mushy) gratitude
I know: everyone talks about gratitude. Everyone encourages it, and saying that we should all practice gratitude is like saying we should all breathe. Of course we should.
But I’m not talking about a gratitude journal here, or a jar, or a meditative ritual.… Read more
I posted on Facebook a conversation The Boy and I had, and two friends suggested I doodle a comic out of it. They didn’t say, in so many words, that I should post it on the internet for the world to see, but I knew that’s what they meant. Secretly. In their heart of hearts.
So here it is!
(If you’re feeling brave, you can friend me on Facebook to read my silliness as it happens.)… Read more
My mission: make art, do work, and engage in shenanigans that inspire fearless love, soulful evolution, and wild creativity as a way of life.
And if, in the process, epic quantities of cheesecake are consumed, all the better! Read more about me here.
