From Leapfrog Press on Oscar night: "Looks to Books with former Leapfrog Global Fiction Prize winners!"

(I'd like to thank the academy, Arden Cho--fabulous dress--and readers of Amphibians.) 

I'm delighted to have two articles in the spring issue of The B Magazine (Berkshire Eagle) about two of my favorite things. (Pickleball is not one.) "Finding My Flock" is an homage to my dear hens. "Pump Up the Volumes" features many wonderful bookstores in the Shire and beyond. (A book crawl: dream assignment!) Read The B here.

Thank you to the Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation for awarding a Martha Boschen Porter Fund Award for Writers! This will enable research for my next manuscript, a memoir/biography (currently titled Daughter of Congress), about my father, Stan Tupper (at his congressional desk in DC in 1961, above). Can't wait to dive in.

What a delightful group of writers in my Fall Workshop Series! We met for five weeks online to discuss writing intentions and share work in progress. It's a treat to take a deep dive into participants' work and talk about elements of craft along the way. My Winter Workshop Series begins January 27, 2026 (drafts due Jan. 10). All details HERE.
