Last week I reposted one of the first posts in this birth/place project (did anyone catch that??), and now it’s been a full year since we began. I’ve run out of willing contributors, and so I’m declaring birth/place on indefinite hiatus. I would of course be glad to have more contributions, especially from those states not yet represented. Please get in touch with me if you’re interested, or send your friends my way.

For now, you can look for forthcoming projects like home/place and hiraeth, but I don’t know when, so be patient. And as ever, if you have contributions, insights or thoughts, I’d love to hear them! Comment here or email me at julia@definingplace.com.
