Writings

“We are lived by powers we pretend to understand”
— W. H. Auden

A gathering place for guides, essays, studies, reflections, and conversation around soul and spiritual life — dreams and imagination, religious experience and deconstruction, myth, gender and sexuality, memory, place, and the many ways meaning takes shape in human life.

Some writing grows from sustained reading and research; some from lived experience and reflection. The Reading Room offers something more informal — a shared place for books, fragments, questions, and conversation.

Ways into the writing

Some pieces offer orientation, some wander more personally, and others grow from sustained reading and research.

The Reading Room

Books & Conversation

A shared space for books, fragments, questions, and conversation. I’ll share something of what I’m reading and what it is stirring — and you’re warmly invited to share what you’re reading, too.
