I love this book list! Some I have read & enjoyed- which is a good sign about the others. I'll be in the Janisse's class on Place too :-) Can't wait, though I'm sad we're almost finished with the memoir class.
YAY! I just love book lists. I find that I mostly read NF though...weird. The fiction books I read seem to take me forever. I'm embarrassed to admit that I've been listening to Stephen King's Fairy Tale for several months and reading One for the Blackbird, One for the Crow by Olivia Hawker for several years. I don't know why I get bogged down in fiction. I am going to miss our weekly class meetings but I'm so happy I've made connections with fellow writers.
Becki, these are thoughtful and astute reflections on our courses. Janisse has been influencing me since 2012. Her voice, whether in person or in written expression, is so soothing and lyrical. I’m writing daily, but nothing to publish recently. I’m doing more social activities here in the holiday season. I’m so happy we’ve connected. Thank you for tracking this memoir journey. I signed up for her year long class on “place,” as well. I hope to see you there!
I wish I were a lyrical writer, but alas, too much government work leaves me direct and to the point most of the time. Janisse helps evoke my more magical side & I greatly appreciate that! Looking forward to learning more with all my new writing friends in 2024!
