me in the piazza

I'm a writer, publishing both as SJ Rozan and, with Carlos Dews, as Sam Cabot. (I'm Sam, he's Cabot.) Here you can find links to my almost-daily blog posts, including the Saturday haiku I've been doing for years. BUT the blog itself has moved to my website. If you go on over there you can subscribe and you'll never miss a post. (Miss a post! A scary thought!) Also, I'll be teaching a writing workshop in Italy this summer -- come join us!

More China photos -- Rock's Village

Joseph Rock was an Austrian-American botanist and ethnographer who lived in Yunnan Province from 1922 to 1949. The village where he had a house is called Yuhu (Jade) Village, and is known as "Rock's Village" in those parts. We spent a rainy morning there. In addition to strolling through Rock's own house and the streets of the village, we were welcomed in a teahouse run by a young woman who up until recently was the Nature Conservancy staffer in Li Jiang. She gave us a fascinating impromptu talk (over steaming coffee and tea!) about the policy and processes of doing conservation work in Yunnan. A tip of the wool cap to my trip roommate, Gwen Howard, for having found her.
