Hi new friends & already-friends that've found me on this new home. Wanted to share that my book is coming out in winter 2025. Been dreaming about this for so long, I'm not sure I can fully digest that it's happening. It's my story, my life, my heart & soul. Can't wait to share it w/the world! 💗
Happy unsubscribing from companies you didn’t know had your email day!!!

In 1970, my mom ran away from home for the first time. She was 13. Over the next several years, and under 2 assumed identities, she hitchhiked her way across America. I wrote about how her story shaped me.

Not as simple as it sounds but still very true. I’d say in addition to like yourself…respect, forgive, be gentle with, be proud of, find a way to be at peace with yourself. 🩵

I can't believe my book's coming out in a few months! Every time I see the cover, it makes me a little teary. It'll be out March, but you can pre-order it now (it's super helpful to have pre-orders) w/ the QR code in the post or the link below.
A big giant thank you!!! :)

Today’s writing view. :)
So much of my life, my day, my thoughts, my angst, has been about what other people think of me. What I say, how I look, the way I move through this world.

No One's Thinking About You
This meme by Sahil Bloom, this phrase, really did something to me.

So when I started writing, whenever another writer messaged me I got so excited & would respond right away. But in the last few years I’ve gotten burned so many times w/bots or inappropriate messages that I’ve become suspicious of everything. It kinda sucks.

My reading spot for the next couple hours. Decided on The Bell Jar. I’ve been meaning to read it for years and just never got to it. Today is it. 🩵

Is it hard being on social media? Yes. Do I sometimes compare w/others & it makes me feel awful? Also yes. But is it also a place where I have a community I love w/writers that understand the beautiful complicated lonely thing it is to do this craft? A giant yes. ❤

I'm fully in love with this. Been a fan of his since A Called Ove, came out in 2012. My boys have read his books too & loved them. I'm so happy he's get this recognition. He so deserves it.

Day one of solo writing retreat. Edited an essay I started 4 yrs ago & sent it off to a great outlet I read every day. I should've had someone else read it first (I definitely recommend doing that w/your pieces) but in my defense I did read it out loud 8 times!!!! Keeping my fingers crossed. :)

I’m at a solo writing retreat. I’m at a place so isolated, I can’t see another human. If you’d told me in my 20s I’d do this I would’ve said you’re nuts, I need people, but in my 50s, it feels almost necessary in order to hear my stories. So even though I’m nervous I’ll be lonely, going to try it! ❤️

I feel this enormous pressure to produce every day. Is it American thing or do other countries have the same pressure? I know in my gut it’s not healthy or necessary, but can’t shake the feeling if I let myself slow down, I’ll fall behind. It’s something I really struggle w/& want to work on.
