Katrina Toshiko Grigg-Saito commented on the blog post 'Surviving the Draft: Pushing Your Book Over the Finish Line'

Mine is memoir rather than…"

- Just Afghan at the moment. It's a relatively new project, and pretty intense. Started by my friend Masha Hamilton. She now has a structure built to keep it all organized, but among other things, they need 3 volunteer teachers every month, so just finding writers to keep it going is a challenge. It's all online, though, so at least there is that.
Sounds like amazing travels you have ahead of you!
