I checked this book out of the library and knew I needed my own copy halfway through the first chapter. Now, my copy is filled with underlined passages and sticky notes.

A wealth of knowledge about writing narrative nonfiction! I recommend this book unreservedly to any writer pursuing joirnalism or narrative nonfiction.

This afternoon, I looked in the mirror and thought, "Do I look like a writer?"

Then, I thought, "Well, I am a writer. People pay me to write, so I must look like a writer."

The thing is, I thought there would be more capes.

ReadZenRites 😂😂 I hear ya. I thought there‘d be more high-fives, too, but whenever I think of a zinger no one‘s around to appreciate it! But you‘re way ahead of me because I don‘t have the nerve yet to ask anyone to pay me to write. 😊 7y
lahousewyfe @ReadZenRites Just go for it! There will be a lot of "no" but eventually, you'll get a yes. Persistence pays for sure! ? 7y
ReadZenRites Thank you for the encouragement! And if you ever need a virtual high-five just hit me up!🖐🏻 7y

Someone helped me write this morning.
And by helped, I mean refused to let me type with both hands.
Still, I'm ready to start outlining my new memoir!
