Around Here

in Uncategorized on 25/04/13

  A new stack of books for my second to last packet before I enter my second year of graduate school. I heard Shannon Huffman Polson read from her writing last year in Santa Fe. Listening to others read from their work is probably my favorite thing about the residencies. A couple of pictures from the Creativity Journals my friend… View Post

And A Half

  What’s the same: *Those eyes of yours. Although, not the red eye part in the first picture. Sorry. I couldn’t figure out how to fix that. *I still see the baby in your face, especially in your cheeks. *I used to call you “the warden” because it seemed like you always knew what was going on, from the moment… View Post

Bye-bye, blue. It’s been real but there’s a new color in town. Can we also talk about what’s going on in these pictures? Come and knock on our door! Harper’s new past time is getting dressed.  She picks outfits out all by herself, then lays them on the floor of her bedroom to “see how they look.” She does it… View Post

Teaching Gig

in Uncategorized on 16/04/13

I made a new friend.  She asked me about writing one day and I started running at the mouth. Have you read this book? Do you know about this technique? What are you working on? Oh, sorry. I forgot I heard once you should never ask another writer what they’re working on but here’s what I’m working on….But do you… View Post

Allowance

in Uncategorized on 04/04/13

I want to tell you about a coffeehouse I found while I was in Port Townsend. To get there from Whidbey Island, I had to get on a ferry and cross the Puget Sound.  It’s a lovely ride along what is called the Whale Trail so I had to stand at the bow to look for some. I didn’t see… View Post

Hi! I’m Callie. I’m a writer and teacher living in Ann Arbor, Michigan. I write Creative Nonfiction, and in my oldest daughter Hadley’s words, I “use my imagination to add a bit of sparkle to the story.” I’m a contributor for Coffee+Crumbs, Off the Page, Makes You Mom, and Relief Journal. My writing has also been featured on Art House America, Tweetspeak Poetry, Good Letters, and Altarwork, and in 2014 I was one of the cast members of the Listen To Your Mother DC show.

I hold an MFA in Creative Writing from Seattle Pacific University, and I am working on my first book that will be published through TS Poetry Press.

When I was in fourth grade, I got my front tooth k When I was in fourth grade, I got my front tooth knock out during a baseball game. I was in the dugout, trying to make a butterfly in the dirt with my shoe. The batter, who’d hit not just a home run, but a grand slam, came running in and everyone cheered and so did I because I’d gotten really good at reading cues for when a good thing happens in sports. I even attempted a high five, and somehow I knocked my face into her batting helmet, thus spending the good part of that weekend summer day in the dentist’s office getting a root canal.

No teeth were lost in this latest incident, but I was lost in a bit of imagining on Sunday when I tripped and fell on Packard while running. I look like I’ve been in a bar fight and my shoulder looks similar to how Wesley’s looked after being attacked by an ROUS. 

But I’m going into work today, and when I told my boss I’m nervous about how I look she said, “It’s OK because you have a story,” and if that isn’t the best thing you could ever say to me, I’m not sure what is. 

So, here I am with a story. Thanks to all my friends and family who’ve been so kind and keeping me laughing.
