Jeannette LeSure commented on the blog post 'I could only write my memoir…After my mother had died'
My father's death opened the closet of horrible memories and I began to write "ugly" as I called it then. I began to reach for some honesty in my writing as I went through three years of frequent flashbacks--not of HIM, but of another…

How John Cusack ruined Valentine's Day for Me.
Jeannette LeSure commented on the blog post 'How to Write Memoir? 1. Forget Writing Prompts and Exercises 2. Stake Out Your Territory'
While I agree that we can get carried away and even use prompts and exercises as effective avoidance techniques to tell ourselves, well, we ARE writing something, I found two books and a couple of classes to be enormously helpful in getting me going…

I am an American married to a Tamilian, living in the Midwestern U.S., so I was thrilled to see an Indian woman on here.
I love the clarity and practicality of your blog, and would leave a comment if I could, but I didn't see a place to do so. So instead I signed up as a follower.
I have two blogs: marriedtothemasala.blogspot.com, about the mix of cultures in my house and the U.S., and buildingsandskies.blogspot.com, which I created as a home for my photos of those two things.
Be well,

Best wishes,

I saw your blog on the Mom Writers Lit. Mag. page and checked it out. You have some good stuff up there. (especially love the photo of the car boots) I was wondering if you have ever done any writing for Helium. It may interest you to check it out. :)
