Quotes:
“I was walking in a coma through my own life.”
“It was a difficult marriage and a difficult divorce, but I think both did set me up for what I would become in later life.”
“All my life my professional work was anchored in writing, but I was always kind of a pen for hire. And now I finally I'm writing for myself.”
“One of the things that I feel like I've learned, and I'm continuing to try to learn in my work with animals and animal organizations, is compassion.”
“A lot of us have difficulty showing ourselves compassion.”
“Sometimes when you don't know where to turn, or which way to move, the only thing to do is just to stay out in the world.”
“I do have a tendency to isolate like a wounded animal. I'll lick my boots in the corner... When I lost my job, not really knowing what to do next, I just stayed in contact. Just stay out in the world and something will drop into your lap.”
