I guess I wasn’t expecting nonfiction about plants to make me cry, but the last essay in @jessicajlee.bsky.social’s Dispersals did just that 🪻

Thinking about nature writing & parenting. How quickly the childcare/workdays pass. Later in spring I'll bring my toddler into the field with me to see critically endangered fish. As I write about the future of the world, doesn't it only make sense that I bring her along? It's her future, anyway.

Respectfully: I'm quite happy to be winding up Zoom calls for the season, but for no one to get to see my now festive backdrop feels wrong. 🎄

Today is publication day for 'this too is a glistening' (Bitter Melon Press) by me, Pratyusha, Nina Mingya Powles & @jessicajlee.bsky.social 💜 Thanks to @jaygao.bsky.social for this amazing blurb! Last copies of our first print run are avail at bookstores & bittermelon.weebly.com/store/p13/th...
The cover of this too is a glistening on a blue-purple-pink gradient background. The cover is a cyanotype of two leaves. The cover is printed in bright pink. These fieldnotes burst through with vivid and slow time. Gleamingly suffused with an architecture - an ecotecture - of small details, this accretion of textures and feelings meditatively render what it means to sense oneself and to sense the other in a world made different. - Jay Gao
