Come Sit By Me


“Wherever I sat, there I might live, and the landscape radiated from me accordingly.
What is a house but a ’sedes,’ a seat?”

-- Henry David Thoreau

I wrote Come Sit By Me a few years ago and placed it in the top right drawer of my desk. It's been screaming for air. By choosing a chapter to read you'll ensure a life to come. And for this, I thank you. -- Julie Maloney

I photographed the red couch before photo shop kept us glued to our computers. To take the shot, I hired two strong teenage boys to carry the couch from my basement and move it around my backyard. After a few hours, they carried it back downstairs. It's still there.
