Playlist

My playlist for this upcoming memoir has been just one song — on repeat. It may seem impossible to one song over and over again, but this song created the perfect backdrop for the task at hand, and the dogs felt so relaxed while I worked on my book.

The song is Khooneye Ma (Our Home), by Marjan Farsad:

Time

It's July 1. Half of 2024 has already slipped away. The weeks and months have blurred together, each day a fleeting moment. 

Just yesterday, I was were dreaming of the possibilities the new year would bring. Now, I find myself reflecting on the past six months, amazed at how swiftly time flies.
