About

Welcome to Across the Page, online home of Janet Goodrich. I write about books, home education, the life of faith, and parenting. This blog also reflects my family’s growing interest in nature exploration and study up through May 2012, when I started a second blog focusing on nature and photography at Discovering Nature.

My tagline says that the world is made up of stories, not atoms. I think this is why people start blogs in the first place: to capture and clarify the stories of our lives. But I also think that the humanities — music, art, literature — constitute a crucial record of the larger human story we all fit into. Sites like this one continue to celebrate the importance of art and speculative thought.

Thanks for stopping by; I hope you’ll find some encouragement here! Feel free to share your thoughts and comments, and come again soon.
