This is a book of essays by Erin Lee Gafill. It includes excerpts from her on-line journal, The Big Sur Fix, as well as thoughts and poetry on creativity, life, distractions and telling the difference.

Each story is a beautifully written vignette that acts as a window into her life. Erin’s roots in the arts run deep. Her great-great grandmother was Jane Gallatin Powers, who had the first artist’s studio in Carmel, and who, along with her husband Frank, created the artists’ colony which today is Carmel-by-the-Sea. Her grandparents, Lolly and Bill Fassett build Nepenthe Restaurant in Big Sur, the legendary watering hole for artists, poets, writers and bohemians.
