At the Aspen Summer Words Conference in 2024, I had the opportunity to work with Mahogany Browne, who led a powerful workshop on writing through grief. I am so grateful for Mahogany's generosity. She said this of #RungbyRung, which @cavankerrypress.bsky.social will publish May 2027:

Like many others, I also am saddened by the loss of Annie Dillard. She was a giant at my alma mater at Hollins and in my view deserves more love in her hometown #Pittsburgh. She will continue to be taught, loved, and read.

Apparently I've helped train AI and all I have to show for it is one contributor copy of Pleiades.
