Oh yeah, a time to rest when ya don’t wanna rest. The book that helped me through that period was “Sabbath: Finding Rest, Renewal, and Delight in Our Busy Lives,” by Wayne Muller. It was a life saver for me. (May be @realwaynemuller) #stayalive https://t.co/O3EAhJunH0

Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse. It soothes my soul, finds courage and forgiveness in my heart, and teases the way through the gateless gate. Seems like it’s time to read it again. Thanks for the reminder https://t.co/9v5GcdOOZq

@disabldsunshine Hiya. I wrote a book called “Hello, Cruel World: 101 alternatives to suicide for teens, freaks, and other outlaws.” It even works when you’re not suicidal. My editor and I took great care to be disability inclusive. Wishing you well ❤️

I climbed 40 feet up the foremast of L. Ron Hubbard’s yacht, jumped out onto the top yardarm where I hung upside down while I unjammed a signal flag from a pulley, then did it all in reverse to get back down.
