Book excerpt: "Sometimes collage essay, sometimes daybook, sometimes poetry, Day Counter counts the ways in which one act of creation (motherhood) threatens not only to erase another act of creation (writing), but also the person doing the mothering. Snapshots of daily life--which occur in the home, the workplace, and the societal (often politically-charged) meeting-grounds we all navigate--contemplate concepts of naming, distance between speaker and experience, and dissonance of reality through a vernacular directness that is underwired with formal control. Permeating the work is an awareness of the arrival of a never-certain next thing, both the despair of that and the arousal. Each 'next' balances in an architecture that is poised upon the potential premise of its own collapse" --
