I just returned from a fall trip to New York . While there, I tracked down the locations of three of my favorite young literary heroines:  Harriet the Spy,  Eloise at the Plaza Hotel and Claudia Kincaid  who ran away to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in the Mixed up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiller.

Take Up Space is a spirited guide to living creatively — not later, but now. Whether you paint, sing, sculpt, write, design, or dance, your artistic expression is how you stay vibrant, connected, and alive.
Make this decade yours. Pick up a brush, a pen, or a red hat — and take up space.
