Thanks to the village of friends who helped us escape the LA heatwave, we ended up here, having sunset cocktails on a sailboat named Zephyr in Oceanside. And yes, I did put Daisy in a life jacket even though the boat was docked, because how could I not? 😻💖⛵️ @jessicatrentpr @alicialawhonrealestate @juliedeanda 💋🙏🌅

A little taste of the Maui wowee 💙 What a spectacular place, and a dream host and guide in @plumarita 🙏🌈🪶✨

Same spot, five days later, *much* more aloha! 🦋🌊Mahalo Pluma and Hawaii, see you soon LA 💫

Good morning, Maui! I arrived yesterday for a visit with my treasured friend @plumarita who wisely packed up her Venice apartment for Hawaii five years ago. She welcomed me at the airport with this exquisite lei, and I’m now gazing at the ocean from her lanai as gentle breezes rustle the palms. I’m hoping to heed the words of one of Maui’s most beloved citizens and simply “be here now,” so I won’t be posting much during this trip. I hope to regale you with rainbows upon my return. Aloha 🌈🌺🪶#ramdass #beherenow

Thanks for coming out to Santa Monica to celebrate

Thanks for coming out to Santa Monica to celebrate “Slouching Towards Los Angeles” and our 👑Joan Didion today! We appreciated the nice turnout, and it was so good to hear @thisblue @jorifinkel @staciestukin read their essays aloud after so long. If you haven’t read the collection yet, let me tell you, it’s a page turner 😎(Special thanks to @lisbethrath who scored the @literaryhub #joandidion tote for me without having any idea that I coveted it :) Until next time… 🌞#slouchingtowardslosangeles

LA friends! (*especially west side friends!) ✨📖✨ @thisblue @jorifinkel @staciestukin and I are slouching towards Santa Monica next Saturday afternoon for a loooong-postponed reading from #slouchingtowardslosangeles . It is also the first event we’ve done since Joan Didion’s passing in December, so it will be nice to publicly celebrate her. 🖤We would love to see you! 🌞#joandidion

I miss the mornings in Mexico City. Of course I loved it at any hour, but the morning light is clean, bright, and diffused by green🌞🌿#callecolima #avenidaamsterdam

The calm after the storm, aka my first and probably last #shelfie🤓I spent hours reorganizing this bookcase, switching out titles I’d grown tired of looking at, bringing in friends and favorites and recent inspirations, and leaving a few boxes’ worth at my local free little library. Swipe to see the before/in process chaos💥📚
