Author of "Wintering" shares how to find joy in daily life

Self-help authors are happy to share their wisdom with us, but they don't always have all the answers either (at least not immediately).

For example, Katherine May wrote a best-selling memoir about making it through a difficult period of her life.

Wintering came out right before the COVID-19 pandemic hit the world at large, though, and while it helped many readers, it wasn't quite enough for the author.

So May had to come up with a new bag of tricks.

Naturally, those came to form the basis of her upcoming release, Enchantment (out tomorrow); you can preview her tips for finding more joy in daily life in The New York Times.
