| I read George Eliot's/Marian Evans' masterpiece for the first time at the beginning of COVID in 2020. I'm so glad I revisited it this year (2026); it's even richer on second reading and I imagine on successive readings for as long as one would like! ...more | |

| I once sat behind Ian McEwan at a reading series in Toronto; he was there to promote NUTSHELL (not one of his better works maybe, but interesting). I tried to absorb the wonder of getting the last ticket to the event only to find him sitting right in ...more | |

“I have spent a good many years since―too many, I think―being ashamed about what I write. I think I was forty before I realized that almost every writer of fiction or poetry who has ever published a line has been accused by someone of wasting his or her God-given talent. If you write (or paint or dance or sculpt or sing, I suppose), someone will try to make you feel lousy about it, that's all.”

Hi Philippa,Hope all is well in your world. I haven't fallen off the face of the earth; just left the social network. (It's been a year and a half already.) It wasn't a a healthy fit for me. New book coming out next spring. In the meantime, I'm honing my painting skills. Who knows? Perhaps I can become an illustrator. To catch up on my activity or to get in touch, please visit me at my website: www.kristinbutcher.com
