It was a challenge, but I liked the product. I also love the short ‘Still’, because it was moody and quiet and I was able to make myself say a lot, with relatively few words. Those books are closest to what I want to be writing. It certainly made for a good time writing it. And then there’s ‘Lifted’ which featured unlikely lovers, with unconventional lives - they are wonderfully imperfect, which I think makes for good characters and good fiction. All of the things I most like to read, and enjoyed writing as well. I especially love ‘The Fall’ because it’s women’s fiction and romance and issue-oriented, and features a strong woman. I have: the smallest and lightest of my four (yes, I know, it’s ridiculous) e-readers which is in a somewhat flowery, colorful case a little pencil case thingie with my fountain pens and spare cartridges a small pocket-sized notebook with a blue-and-white paisley print cover for the unexpected stroke of creative genius a much larger 2018 brown leather daybook/calendar Trident Purely spearmint chewing gum, a small brush, several travel-size lotion tubes ranging from fragrance-free to coconut & lime black leather gloves my fancy sunglasses that I have had for a record TWO years (that’s why I got the fancy ones, because then I would know I had to take care of them) napkins rom Starbucks (where I no longer by coffee but over-pay for tea), receipts, Excedrin migraine clear mascara Palmer’s cocoa butter lip balm black ponytail holders and about a half-dozen pens.įavorite book you’ve written? That’s like asking a parent which is their favorite child. But right now, here’s what I’ve got and I’m going to be as author-ly in my descriptions as I can. What’s in your purse? There’s one constant when it comes to my purses (although I prefer to say ‘pocketbook’ even though it’s old-fashioned because purse sounds so … girly) … they’re messy. That said, here's a little more on Nia Forrester. She's just super good people, and I'm happy to know her. I know that sounds corny but I'm dead serious. Nia isn't only one of my favorite writers but over the few years that I've known her has continually inspired me with her words, insight, humility and graciousness.
And now, of course, it's headed to Atlanta!
She started the event in DC a couple of years ago, and then last year, it was held in Philly (organized by author Tia Kelly). #WineWithWriters is actually Nia's brainchild. #WineWithWriters is coming up on March 10, 2018- and there are going to be some super talented writers participating, including an author who is easily one of my absolute favorite contemporary writers (indie or otherwise), Nia Forrester.
