Cleaning and culling my Arctic library in prep for some big time writing time this winter. ‘Arctic Dreams’ is so tattered! Get a new copy or keep this one? (It has traveled in a backpack across the tundra but is so broken now it is hard to read. Dilemma.) These uppik will keep me company…

It has been a long time since I have been at home, long enough to wonder what home really means. I know it means love, comfort, and familiarity, but if I include beauty, diversity, and a way to find newness in every day, then perhaps Antarctica has become–in some tiny way–part of my home. Photo…

Jenny recently talked with Jacquie Surges from Apartment613 about Meet the North. The two discussed Jenny’s love of the north, why she decided to create the project and how her relationship to the north has changed. Read all about this in Surges’ article here. “It really is amazing what shows up when you just create…
Jenny recently sat down with The Ottawa Citizen’s Elizabeth Payne to discuss Meet the North. Learn more about Jenny and the inspiration behind the project in Payne’s great article here. “The north is in the news, but it tends to be about resource extraction, sovereignty, climate change — all really important issues, yet there are four…
