Writer's Digest
- 5-Minute Memoir. This ran in the March/April 2014 issue of Writer's Digest. An essay that was so personal and sad for me... that I dreaded its publication. But when it came out, I danced around my kitchen anyway.
Motherhood Column - my favs
- Growing out your hair? Don't. This was unexpectedly one of my most well-read blogs ever. Who knew that hair could be so popular?
- Hauling wood with Dad (and the subsequent blow to the head). I love this one because it's about the day my mom almost killed my dad.
- Late to school. Every mom in America will like this one.
- My secret training weapon: A nemesis. All my friends liked this one. Because everyone was trying to guess who it was. And it was Jake of course.
- Not Riding the Iceman. Again, this was a blog post that got lots of attention. And it was something I was almost afraid to confess.
Traverse Magazine
- Gliding Toward The Sun - This was one of the best days of my life. The sun, the frozen lake, silence, bald eagles.
- AuSable Marathon - HUP all night - You will have to read this to believe that I run around with a bunch of crazy women in the dark, in the river, at night with plastic bags and tubes.
- The Iceman Cometh - largest 1-day mtn bike race in US - ride with me! Love this story because it forced me to commit to riding. And to undertaking the world's toughest mountain bike race. In my humble opinion.
- Snowmobile Party Town - Scariest story assignment in a long time. Me, a bunch of guys and lots of beer. And me without my snowmobile.
- Queen of the Road: Pro Cyclist Susan Vigland or read it on their website. I'm in love with this woman.
