Listen "Hard-Won Wisdom, featuring Sari Botton"
Episode Synopsis
If part of why you write is because you have some things to share from a life well- or hard- or fully lived, then you’re in good company. Personal writing is about connection, and making sense of our experience, and this week’s guest, Sari Botton, knows a thing or two about what brings writers to the page. She is a champion of personal writing and memoir, and is going to share about contributing, about her own writing process and why it’s hard to put personal things into the world, and so much more—including how to stay the course during these insane times we’re living in and through. To read Sari’s piece that's part of Writing Co-Lab's 100 Days of Creative Resistance, visit here.
