Love the "getting ready for it" energy! Inspiring. I started reading the Summer section of #1000 WORDS OF SUMMER last week, and it's gorgeous! I'm in wrapping up and sending out mode with another project and it will be such a joy to create new words in June.
What a mind blowing quote about devotion to your writing as if it is a child you love and want to do right by. Yes, true for all kinds of passion but so relevant to me this week as my third novel is released and I indeed feel like its shepherd or loved one holding its hand as it meets the world. Thank you for sharing this!
Wonderful inspiration for me today as I enter the twelfth month of marketing and promoting my book. This part of the journey takes devotion too; we have to represent our best self and our best writing all along. Happy almost May!
Your words about Hanif Abdurraqib: "someone who is achieving so highly because he is talented but also because he chose to do it. He decided it, and it was true. You can decide to write, too." That's the gem for me in this post--DECIDE TO DO IT. Which is also, really: Decide to Be It.

Yay Kari! I'm so glad you'll be there again!
