What if I made it my plan to do a kindness every day. I could: give a dozen eggs to someone one day; listen to someone who needed an ear another; give water to someone who was thirsty; pay for the person behind me in a drive thru; smile at the driver who changes lanes without signalling on my front bumper; teach someone to speak English or read; hug everybody I know when I see them; send a donation to help in Texas.
OK, that’s seven. That’ll keep me busy for a week.
Now get out there and change lanes in front of me without signalling.

In the nineties she published her first book and led critique groups and writers' workshops. In the twenty-first century she became a teaching consultant for the National Writing Project, published several more books, and began an editing business.
