Miranda on the Web

January 31, 2011 / No Comments

We all know more clever and fun coding could be happening on the internet. Miranda July is the only one who seems to actually think of anything.* Above is the splash page for her website.

In other MJ news, she has a new movie coming out! Get ready for some things to be uncomfortable! Watch a little interview here, or read an interview with her about it here. There’s no preview out there (that I can find) but there is, of course, the movie’s website.

I think it’s really interesting to use Paw Paw {a talking cat} as a narrative device because cats are so often thought of as tricksters, or at best, unreliable narrators. –from the interview.

*If you missed the website for her short story collection, check it out now. Her love-community-building-project website Learning to Love You More is now considered modern art.

Hi! I live in Vermont with my husband Joe and our four daughters: 11, 9, 6, and 3.

Writing on this blog is fluid. In an effort to just keep going I try to publish things before they feel ready or perfect, and I often come back and edit them again, later on. Its primary purpose is a way to engage with others on topics that otherwise swirl about in my mind in a lonely way. I spend most of my time homeschooling and learning alongside the girls. I grew up in Michigan and was homeschooled with my six siblings until I went to high school. I believe in God; our family attends a Mennonite church.

*If anything here makes it appear that my life is clean and breezy--don't be fooled. I enjoy displaying things in a tidy way here, which is very much in contrast to my everyday life.

*I use Amazon affiliate links where possible. I like tracking clicks and at some point I might actually cover the cost of years of web hosting.
