Cooking and Writing Aren’t Too Far Apart

Press Release from Ucross

What I failed to mention for this release was that this residency inspired a new project, something about writing and cooking and food and consciousness, something along those broad lines. It’s in the pipeline, at least. From Ucross:

“During the culinary residency, the artmaking is more hands-on, of course, and as a writer I’ve missed that tactile space, playing with food, using local produce and proteins. It is such a joy to feed other creative souls,” Basham said. “It truly was a pleasure cooking good things for good people. It is a reminder of how essential a meal is for human connection: It brings people together, builds social and cultural capital, and offers meaning and beauty for our hungry minds.” 

All my love and thanks to Ucross for sharing!
