Route to Rise

About the Substack

Welcome! It's laugh or cry and I'd rather laugh, and most times, it's my take on life and I find "the funny," then there are the moments I cry and I share those too.

About Mary McKnight

I am a writer, gardener, teacher, illustrator, a mother of a 25-year-old on her own path. Our spicey Tortie died the day before Thanksgiving. We now share our home with kitty siblings.
