The Willful Woman writes from her generous kitchen table in a small and quirky New England town where she overlooks several neglected apple trees and a sturdy stone wall. She is a mama of 3, a grateful partner of 1, a deep lover of literature, a migraineur and has almost never met a progressive cause she didn't want to fight for. She is rarely at a loss for an opinion and believes in the power of people telling their own stories and being truly listened to. She also shares her home with a sweet and spotted deaf dog named Virginia.
