What people are saying about Home|body
Your brain is a wonder.
_Dana Schwartz, Future Crone
Love the raw, brutal truths you tell, Krista!
_Anna Povich de Mayor, Musician/Educator
Reading your columns...is a bit like riding a tram through a darkened fun house where skeletons or clowns pop up around every corner. It’s exhilarating but sometimes scary.
Each week, I get another PET scan of your brain—just a small segment where the impulses move in surprising ways through the various synapses.
_Barrett Seaman, author, editor of The Hudson Independent, former TIME and White House correspondent
Clever and fun
_Andrew Smith, GoatFury
I’m currently obsessed with your writing. I appreciate your sense of humor and pathos.
_Paul Griffin
How you get around
You can navigate it this way or that:
By the top menu
BOOKSHELF - The books live mainly in the living room/bedroom of my house. Link brings you to my (other) website which has more about me and my BOOKS.
JUNK DRAWER - My favorite drawer is in the basement with the weird old tools from my dad. Call it what you like, but we all know the best stuff in the house goes in the junk drawer! Here’s misc. artsy nicknacks and other LESS-WORD INTENSIVE TREASURES for you to rifle through.
OFF-GASSING - Officially decommissioned any need for the gas-ventilation the chimney once provided. Charting my SUSTAINABILITY JOURNEY to 100% electric and then net-zero.
SLEEPY HOLLOW, INK. - Everything within arm’s reach in the immediate zip code outside my windows. LOCAL reporting, oral histories, Irving everything, and snarky mom columns from my perch along the Hudson.
PIPE DREAMS - How about something fantastical on the front lawn like a tree made of pipes? The creative writing landscape, where figments of my imagination get turned into FICTION.
HOME|BODY - isn’t on the map because it’s the WHOLE THING! On the Homepage and in the Archive are all the posts no matter if categorized like the above or not.
Or by Tags/Categories in the body
From the body of the homepage, you’ll see the content is also arranged by Tags or Categories. Read according to your interest from topics such as:
Women | Water | Words | Lonely | Hoard | Cybersickness | Death | Freaks | Monster | Alien | Introvert | Break | Shape | Presence | Age | Color
