I am a longtime freelance writer with wide-ranging experience with books, magazines, newspapers, and a variety of writing and editing clients. I’ve written articles for women’s magazines, co- and ghost-written books with therapists and doctors as well as a couple of my own. I’ve trained as a therapist and written a novel based on my grandmother’s psychoanalyst who was a member of Freud’s inner circle in Vienna. (It’s just a few tweaks away from sending out.)

“biodiversity actually begins in the soil.”
Judith D. Schwartz, Cows Save the Planet: And Other Improbable Ways of Restoring Soil to Heal the Earth

“They say farmers need a safety net. I think the soil should be our safety net. If you add up the dollar figure for improved health, carbon sequestration, lower fossil fuel bills, and resistance to weather extremes, it’s a lot.”
Judith D. Schwartz, Cows Save the Planet: And Other Improbable Ways of Restoring Soil to Heal the Earth

“proverb from the Sanskrit Vedic Scriptures of around 1500 bce: “Upon this handful of soil our survival depends. Husband it and it will grow our food, our fuel and our shelter and surround us with beauty. Abuse it and soil will collapse and die, taking humanity with it.”
Judith D. Schwartz, Cows Save the Planet: And Other Improbable Ways of Restoring Soil to Heal the Earth
