Friends, I am nearly giddy as I type this. Seve

Friends,

I am nearly giddy as I type this.

Several months ago, I learned about a concept called "cycle syncing." This is the process of syncing one's life, work, and eating habits around the phases of your menstrual cycle. I have long championed concepts like intuition and following your gut when it comes to managing one's life, but it was just blind faith in myself. I didn't really understand WHY my body leads me in one direction vs another each month. And because I didn't understand the REASON (or the CONSEQUENCES) of my body's signals, I didn't listen to her as much as I claimed to.

So I hired Jac (@menstrualmogul ) to help me.

Working with Jac revolutionized my life. I now understand my hormones and their role in my day better. But I also discovered an even more important secret: cycle syncing is a SUPERPOWER for creative people! It will make you a deeper, more consistent writer.

Since I started to apply cycle syncing to my life:

I feel healthy.
I am no longer overwhelmed.
My mind is bursting with creative ideas.
I am more patient with my kids + husband.
I love my businesses again.
I no longer feel like my life is passing me by or I am "too late."
I love being a woman.

And now I am bringing the amazing @menstrualmogul to YOU. Jac generously agreed to do an Instagram Live with me this Thursday. Jac will teach you all about how to work WITH your hormones and menstrual cycle, and I will explain what this looks like for the fiction, poet, or creative nonfiction author. Questions welcome!

P.S. You don't have to be a writer--or even a menstruating woman--to get a lot out of this conversation. There will be plenty of life-changing information outside of being an author. And as I have shared about cycle syncing with my girlfriends, I often find their husbands as interested in this as they are! So come all!

“The Life and Adventures of Joaquín Murieta”

“The Life and Adventures of Joaquín Murieta” was a popular dime novel about a Mexican bandit who plunders and loots during the California Gold Rush. Joaquin Murieta is a good man who eventually turns to outlawing after several horrific attacks on his family due to the severe anti-Mexican prejudices following the Mexican-American War.

The book was written by the Cherokee author Yellow Bird (Chees-quat-a-law-ny, who also went by John Rollin Ridge) and is considered the first published book by a Native American.

Although the author was Indigenous, his character, Joaquin Murieta, is Mexican. Murieta was also a real figure, though this book is a heavily fictionalized account of the actual outlaw. In this fictionalized version, Murieta is depicted as having an Indigenous mother, though as far as we know, the real outlaw was only of Mexican heritage.

The legend of Murieta eventually morphed into a kind of "Robin Hood" tale of robbing the rich to feed the poor. And while there is some truth to that, most historians think that aspect of the outlaw's life has been exaggerated. Because Yellow Bird's account of Murieta was fictionalized, it has been hard for the general public to parse apart what is accurate from sensationalized.

While the book highlights the evil of racism and prejudice, it has also been criticized for its stereotyping of Chinese characters.

Fun fact: Joaquin Murieta's life (including the fictionalized Yellow Bird source) is thought to be one of the primary inspirations for the masked vigilante Zorro (Yes, as in "The Legend of Zorro.") And the creator of Batman admitted that Zorro was his inspiration. So essentially, it's only a *slight* stretch to say that Joaquin Marieta is Batman. 😂🙌

The perfect Minnesota evening. Spent two hours row

The perfect Minnesota evening. Spent two hours rowing the Mississippi River and Lake Irving this evening with the kids. And by “rowing,” I mean @john_enger rowed 😜.

Two squirrelly toddlers in a rowboat is not easy, but I was very impressed at how good they did. Water is meditation; even they were mesmerized by it. ❤️
