Saturday, August 11, 2007. Me and Al Gore and Rachel Carson. I'm delighted that HOME, AND OTHER BIG, FAT LIES has won another environmental-related award, this one from the Santa Monica Public library. Very cool, especially since I'm in good company. Check out the list of winning authors:. Birds of Prey Rescue: Changing the Future for Endangered Wildlife by Pamela Hickman, published by Firefly Books.

But since they’ve gone out of business, it’s been up to me. When you’re writing, your story is everywhere. You mean you steal your ideas from your own children? I prefer to think of it as borrowing, like the way they borrowed my jewelry and change from my purse. Isn’t that what family is for? Okay, I’m a sucker for politeness in caps, so...

More Books by Jill. Cold Hands, Warm Heart. Home, and Other Big, Fat Lies. What I Call Life. We were only three angry girls, to begin with. Alix, the hot-tempered surfer chick; Stephanie, the nature-loving activist; and me, Meg, the quiet foster kid, the one without a boyfriend or real family and who has never fit in anywhere. We hardly knew one another, but each of us nurtured a burning anger: at the jerks in our class, at our disappointing parents, at the whole flawed, unfair world. Want to read more?

Piping Loud: March 2007
http://jillinsantacruz.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 28, 2007. I’m so glad to be back in California. After only two weeks away, so much has changed. It’s that time of year, spring making its splashy debut. While I was gone, the mustard greens in my garden sprouted their tall spikes of yellow. Screaming orange poppies are everywhere. Only a month or so ago, this fancy perfumed showgirl looked brown and withered in the pot on my deck. Look at her now. I didn't know the names of the trees there. The air felt and smelled foreign to me....Every...

Piping Loud: October 2006
http://jillinsantacruz.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 31, 2006. Now I have chard growing and will plant some onion, garlic, maybe shallot soon. I love looking at them in the winter and to smell their powerful scent with the first hints of spring. Posted by Jill Wolfson. I came across this quote today: "I'd hate to die twice. It's so boring." Supposedly, it was said by Richard Feynman on his deathbed. Death, boring? It seems like it could be many things- terrifying, enlightening, confusing, a lesson in letting-go. But boring? Books on my iPod.

Piping Loud: December 2006
http://jillinsantacruz.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 29, 2006. DAY IN BIG SUR. Is there a more beautiful and magical place on earth? Words fail it, as do these photos of our outing today. Posted by Jill Wolfson. Wednesday, December 27, 2006. Juvenile Justice in Africa. As I expected, the situation in Africa is, if possible, even more shocking. Given the poverty, political corruption and social chaos of those countries, how could it be otherwise? The article portrays a situation that is infuriating, terrifying and very, very sad. Least ...

Piping Loud: November 2006
http://jillinsantacruz.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 28, 2006. Today is my "little" sister's 50th birthday. We have an oft-told family story about how she was named. My mom's name is Lil, dad is Gil and I am - yes, groan - Jill. My parents were pushing for perhaps Phyllis (Phil). But as a bossy and Peter Pan-obsessed preschooler, I insisted on Wendy and they relented - smartly (to my mind at least) and putting a cap on the "ill" family. Happy Birthday, Wendy. Posted by Jill Wolfson. Home, and Other Big, Fat Lies. There are two other books...
