Thanks for the interesting talk,@youngblut. Great way to spend a Thursday evening.
We're kicking off (bouncing off) tonight with @CathrinBradbury, speaking about her brother, David, and in general, miracles and hope. "I know how that sounds... stick with me." #TheWayWeBounce, on #ImagineOnAir. 🔴LIVE now, and on-demand later, here: wordfest.com/2021/watch/the…
While readers’ instincts may be to reach for escapist fiction as we hear the words "third wave" @TaraRHenley suggests that leaning in to the grief of being human and letting writers who’ve grappled with it could be a a way to forge a path forward. tgam.ca/2OWCbfH 1/2

@healeytypes @CathrinBradbury I was up in the middle of the night investigating noises. It was (of course) a pack of young raccoons. I hastily retreated inside just as one of them came out of nowhere and stood at my full window back door with his front paws on the glass pleading his case for coming inside. 🦝

During my interview with @CathrinBradbury, I asked what she hoped readers would take away from her book, The Bright Side. She took a second to think. "That we are all capable of tremendous change at any point in our lives." Isn't that the truth?
