Writer’s Life
Work in Progress Back StoryThe manuscript is written for my new book. The road to publication can be long. This is where I will share the story of why I wrote this book, who I wrote it for, who might feel connected and seen through it, and what I learned in the process. I thought I was writing about menopause, and I was writing from within that lens. I am also a poet, and so it came out in surprising ways, and my muse had an entirely different direction and became insistent. Come along for the ride.
