You are one of the most powerful (translated as vulnerable and speaking the truth) writers I am thankful for every day to know, admire, and adore!!! How do you walk that fine line that marks the depths of our despair in life and what we have survived, with the written replay of that? What would you say to a new writer out there who has much to uncover but is afraid to cut to the blood?"
