Our writing is a gift – both to ourselves and others. That’s what Elizabeth Jarrett Andrew teaches, and we loved getting to explore these ideas in this week’s episode! In this wide-ranging conversation about spiritual memoir, we cover:
- Balancing marketability with honoring the complexity and authenticity of our experience
- The author’s “horseshoe” relationship with the reader in memoir
- Staying faithful to the gifts that you receive—and that you give—in your writing
- Does not finishing really mean failing at our book?
- Loving your writing for its own sake, not for what it “does”
