Thanks, Brittany. And, congratulations!

Yes, as excited as I am, I get overwhelmed with anxiety about the feedback I might get from family members or close friends. For me, at least, it's so much easier to be vulnerable with readers than it is with those I'm close to. I think that's relatively common — which is comforting! But there's certainly a consequence to speaking you truth. Though I don't regret it at all, it's still scary and tough. Probably the biggest comfort is thinking of the other memoirists who have come before me. I think, if Mary Karr can do it, so can I. That's not to equate us as writers (come on!) but just to equate us as humans with families and friends who might be pissed off at us for what we've disclosed. She seems to be doing okay. So, maybe I'll do okay too. Finger crossed, you and I both will. (less)

It's tough, because I want to be working on something new and exciting ALL the time, but if I don't take breaks then my brain just produces mush. But if I make myself do it, then I'll find myself sitting on a bus one day, and that's when the next good idea hits. So, short answer: take breaks and take bus rides. (less)

“I had to get comfortable with uncomfortable thoughts, worry, and doubt. To expect uncompromised happiness was as unreasonable as looking for solutions at the bottom of a bowl of ice cream.”
Kelsey Miller, Big Girl: How I Gave Up Dieting & Got a Life

“And I hope we can all agree that aiming for “perfect” is nothing short of bananapants.”
Kelsey Miller, Big Girl: How I Gave Up Dieting & Got a Life

“We don't get montages or grand finales. We just eat dinner and do the dishes, and absolutely no one's going to clap their hands about it.”
