more from louise...
I’ve published in The Washington Post, Forbes, Health, Via, More, Diablo, San Francisco, Coastal Living, Salon, Ms, Cosmopolitan, and the NYTimes Magazine, among many others. I love doing radio, and have contributed news and commentary to All Things Considered and other programs. When not writing, I'm surfing, competitive swimming, traveling to out-there places, or at my martial arts school, Studio Naga, one of the few places outside of Indonesia where you can study Indonesian silat. |
