I’ve spent over a decade trying to describe my favorite plant in the world to people who have never seen it. I’m so thrilled to have this essay on that plant—and what it means to me—out in the world!! Thank you @TinyMolecules and @sbdobbie for giving it the perfect home!

Love to see this!!

Since there are still lots of writers on here pursuing traditional publishing, here’s a thread of times I almost gave up and why I’m glad I didn’t: 1. I won a query critique from an agent on my 1st Ms and they requested to see more, but then ghosted me.

@DawnSteffler Woooohooo Dawn!!! Congratulations!!!
