“I do a lot of encouraging people to journal and to just write it out, sing it out, dance it out, whatever you need to do,” says Carolyn Holbrook, author of Tell Me Your Names and I Will Testify: Essays (University of Minnesota Press).
Had a great chat with Carolyn about how she arrived at the structure of her book, how indispensable teaching and writing have been during these times, and not turning to stone.
She’s the badass behind More Than a Single Story and she’s a leader in her community, someone empowering students and writers to take up the pen and surrender to their story.
It’s funny, though they haven’t met, Carolyn knows Anika Fajardo, a friend of the podcast and brilliant writer of memoir and middle age novels.
