Thanks for highlighting Nancy 's work. She writes beautifully and takes you with her on the personal experiences.
After reading Arrival and getting a sense of the compassion of an African community, I read Descent Into Darkness which made that story of the genocide in Rwanda even more haunting.
1. The regal and impressiveness of a golden-inked pen.
2. “It is important to me, when reading true stories, that the narrative encourages contemplation and recognition of a truth previously not understood, or at least not entirely resolved.”
Thanks for sharing these relatable and personal writing tips. I love that you wrote in all the numbers before actually having experiences to attach to the numbers. 150!! Amazing and ambitious but not unachievable. Life is made up of tons of those moments you described, big and small, interesting and sometimes funny or scary.
Thanks, Anita! "Scary moments" is a great addition to the prompts for Story Ideas. I immediately thought of a couple new frightening tales to add to my list!
