Just pre-ordered! I have learned so much from your work, Maggie, and hope to send my memoir out into the world next year. You will be in the acknowledgments. Thank you for your generosity to other writers.

Hi Maggie, this sounds like a book our entire poetry group should read. Would you be willing to speak to our group via ZOOM during one of our monthly meetings? The group is the Greater Cincinnati Writer's League which has been around for almost 100 years. Most, if not all, of our members are published authors (so not beginners).

Michael, email me and we’ll see what we can do! (I’m actually visiting a book group today, so yes, this is something I’m happy to do if I can make it work schedule-wise.)

Thanks, Kristi! I'm excited for it to be in the world, too (and not just in my head, or on my computer).

How funny! I'm so late to this party. No more preorder, it's ready and I see this post was from October.

What beautiful words from Elizabeth Gilbert, so from the heart, and I can see why you're still getting over them. And yes, it worked, I will pre-order. 💚
