How Shall I Hold You
bird, Canon Digital Rebel
If you're still in the mood for love, my friend Sasha Wizansky and Joshua Poertner are doing a wonderful project called How Shall I Hold You. It is a collaborative study of the love letter, specifically concerned with love letters from a specific type of relationship: lovers who do not share the same native tongue.
You can find more info here on how to submit. Send them your love letters!
I just have to tell you that I stumbled across your blog some time ago and I read it all the time and I love it!!!! I am an artist (writer/singersongwriter) turned Mom in the trenches and you are so helping me keep my creative spirit alive. Thank you sooo much! And I love the HowshallIholdyou . . . girl, you are making a difference. Keep up the good work! Loev love,

My boyfriend surprised me last night with one of your "superhero" necklaces, and it is just so beautiful. I love it. Been reading your blog for awhile (he knows this) so it is wonderful to have something so pretty to remind me of your inspiring words...thanks!
Caroline,
You've got to figure out a way!
Do you know where he hangs out?
I suggest you put your superhero cape on,
and the next time you see him, say, "Hey, I've seen
you around a lot. My name is Caroline." and give him
your big beautiful smile.
this will be a good start!!! and not too scary.
xoa
I officially have a crush on a man who doesn't know I exist. I seem to have escaped this conundrum in high school, and now I have no idea what to do or how to approach him, as he appears way out of my league.
He's a cute psychology major. Who can SING. Plus he's smart and funny, but that's about all I know.
I don't know his name, but I always lose my nerve to even say "hi" when I walk by him, which results in a weak smile he doesn't see because he's reading a rather large book most of the time. I probably seem like quite the whiner, but since you came up with that brilliant 'operation bagel,' I was hoping you might have a creative idea on how to approach him.
I'm pretty much a wuss when it comes to these things :).
and....

I just noticed the bird suspended mid~flight in front of the building! That is far too cool for school! :D

"Joshua Poertner

and
Sasha Wizansky
(Constantly smitten, plucks daisy petals, doodles arrow-pierced hearts on her notebooks)"
daisy petals it is!
