What We Did, All of Us Here


Happy New Year, my darlings. I hope you have had a lovely holiday season, and are feeling happy and rested. We are going to have our work cut out for us in 2017--or, more likely, we will be cutting it out as we go. I am so proud to share information here about the money we raised and donated to the Environmental Defense Fund, the ACLU, the Southern Poverty Law Center, Planned Parenthood, and Partners in Health. Thank you for being so game and generous and wonderful. I love you. xo

  4. You give me hope for 2017! And I wouldn't complain if you wrote another book, which would make the year better, too!

  8. Catherine, I love you dearly. Is that creepy? It's not meant to be. You're just such an amazing person, and exactly the kind of role model everyone needs. (Originally I wrote "the kind of role model I need" but that really just doesn't cover it.)

    To continue the creepy vibe, that picture of Ben and Birdy makes me so happy. What a beautiful family you've built.

    xoxo, Katie

  9. This is fantastic. I avoid Amazon affiliate links, but I happily clicked on your games for kid links. Also, if anyone reading this who has not read your "Catastrophic Happiness", I suggest that you do so ASAP. Thank you, thank you!

  11. We have people like you on our side, Catherine- the compassionate, committed, smart (and very funny) people, that is. This gives me hope that we can make the world better, and man, I really needed some hope. Peace to you and yours in 2017. Peace and plenty of resistance!
