I can’t wait to chat with Nicole Walker about her #memoir ‘How to Plant a Billion Trees’ next week. Her book braiding childhood trauma and forests under climate change is so relevant. Contact me to join or follow the link in comments. #writingcommunity #5amwritersclub

It's going to be a delight working with the one and only, super-excellent @mattkendrick.bsky.social !

Writing into the hard parts this morning. Getting into thorny material on the page is strangely satisfying. Happy new week, friends! #5amwritersclub #WritingCommunity #memoir

This week’s memoir revision word count: 6000. It’s amazing what happens when you’re not looking. Step by step. No rush. #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity #memoir

Two hours a day a writer make. Sit at the desk and write. You can even skip the desk.

Can writing be taught? And what do creative writing teachers teach? nailyournovel.wordpress.com/2015/02/22/c... #writingcommunity #creative #writinglife #authorlife

Cutting away so much in this revision. There’s only so much early childhood the reader needs. Happy scribing, friends! #memoir #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity

New week, new words. I revised two chapters of my #memoir manuscript this morning. One sentence at a time. That’s the only way. Have a good one, friends! #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity

I’m gearing up for a #memoir rewrite, reading my recent journals for notes about the manuscript. Also put out my Africa tablecloth from Mozambique. What are you up to today? #5amwritersclub #WritingCommunity

After swimming in a lake, pool laps felt easier. It’s all relative.

Today I started reading my #memoir draft. It felt like a big step, but I’m in the door now. Beginnings are hard…keep going. Happy new week, friends! #5amwritersclub #WritingCommunity

Summer is the season to try something new. I’m bringing the joy of unhurried focus into my #memoir project. I wrote about it in my latest Substack post. Link in comments. Happy reading and writing, friends! #writingcommunity #5amwritersclub #writingtips

I’m finding the Spirit of Story virtual #memoir salon so inspiring. Perfect timing as I prepare to dig deep into my story. Link to salon in comments. Have a great day! #5amwritersclub #WritingCommunity

I don’t love writing in the heat, but needs must. Have a good one, friends! Happy new week! #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity #memoir

After Iceland, England seems aglow. (No photos, I’m still thinking about Iceland.) Happy weekend, friends! #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity #memoir #writinglife

New month, new focus. Back from a purifying trip to Iceland, I’m ready to start draft 3 of my childhood memoir. What are you up to? #5amwritersclub #WritingCommunity

I’m committing to take more interest in all levels of politics and every election, starting with the democratic primary for NYC US Congress representative. The world is on fire, and I’m not going to complain from the sidelines. Sending in my ballot today.

Last week I wrote a short essay in my head, typed it up, then found out a few days later I’d already handwritten the same piece. Going to revisit the earlier version this morning! Happy new week! #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity #memoir

When you wake up and your brain narrates an essay in your head… Happy Friday! #5amwritersclub #WritingCommunity

Today I’m writing about writing. That’s not such a bad thing, is it? #writingcommunity #5amwritersclub #memoir

I’ve been teaching memoir writing and loving it. My manuscript calls out to me longingly. Just a little longer…I’ll be back with you soon. Happy new week! Follow the words where they take you. #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity

Some of my best writing happens away from the desk. Happy weekend, friends! #5amwritersclub #writingcommunity

Before you buy your ticket to see #Michael, don't forget to see Leaving Neverland. Before we had #PedoPresident Don and the #Epsteinfiles we had this documentary about Michael Jackson. www.imdb.com/title/tt9573...

I will never forget the experience of seeing LEAVING NEVERLAND at its Sundance premiere. For @avclub.com I wrote about a devastating, definitive documentary about surviving sexual abuse that cannot be erased.
