Reading recommendations: Dear Edward by Ann Napolitano; the Beartown trilogy by Fredrik Backman (Beartown, Us Against You, The Winners) and also A Man Called Ove. Horse by Geraldine Brooks.
Ooh, thank you! I've read A Man Called Ove--I think Debbie and I used it as our book-in-common for a France workshop. But I've not read any of the others, so these are great recommendations.
I'm back on my feet after a bout of COVID that left me lots of time to write but feeling too awful to do it. It is so good to feel like doing something (anything!) that it almost seems as if I have a second lease on life (or at least my winter.) Reading your missives always makes me realize it's time to get back out there and keep my head in the game. Thank you for your continued inspiration and wisdom. Your new motto should be "making a difference to writers - one word at a time"
Oh Marna, thank you for that lovely motto. And I'm glad you are back on your feet after Covid. Awful place to be in--time to write but no energy to do it. Looking forward to more of your work!
