An unabashedly queer descendent of Utah pioneers, Nan Seymour is deeply smitten with life in all forms, including scrub oak forests, vultures, and wild violets. Years ago she created River Writing, a community-held writing practice, to foster voice and encourage authentic connection. The practice also resists the tyranny of perfectionism and breaks through walls of isolation.
The chambers of her heart are occupied by her daughter Beatrice, her husband Mustafa, beloved human friends, and Sophie, her border collie/lab companion. She is devoted to community and dares to hope that our collective participation in human evolution is helping to tip the balance of the cosmos towards kindness and even love.
