In Kyoto I attended a #geisha party & saw this lovely performance. The name of the dance makes reference to tea & you can see her picking tea leaves. Unhappily video cuts in an odd place. Koaki was elegant, beautiful & captivating. Stay tuned! #author #TheGeishaandtheMillionaire

No, I’m not in Japan yet. But last month on a rainy afternoon in the East Village, I went from this to this in 4000 easy steps with just a little bit of padding and a touch of make up plus expert help from Masae Satouchi of the New York, Kimono, Academy. All research for new book

Rare photo of geisha Yuki Kato and millionaire George Morgan whom she later married. In dark kimono are Yuki (left) and her sister Uta (right). Girl is Namie, Uta's daughter. George is behind them. Man on far right may be Kobayashi, George's interpreter and guide #geisha #histfic

Everything in the geisha world is exquisite. From their kimono to their umbrellas to their hair ornaments (kanzashi). A whole world of beauty and grace.

Always thrilling to see maiko (geisha-in-training) walking down the street in Kyoto. Getting in the mood for an upcoming trip by looking through my old photos! #Japan #geisha #gildedage #morgan #yuki

Road trips are full of surprises. Today I got lost in the pouring rain in a small town in PA. Made a U turn in front of the fire station and found myself looking at this! Let's turn all the old phone booths in America into Little Free Libraries!!! #RebelliousWoman #Libraries

A gorgeous review of THE BEND OF LUCK "The static rhythms of grief and regret are captured in ways I would have thought as improbable as preserving beads of luck in a bottle... Hypnotic and continually intriguing."— Hilobrow (full review: bit.ly/3DJ60aL) @topshelfcomix
