fran schumer commented on Ami Mattison's article 'Powerful Beyond Measure': Fear vs. Creative Success

November 2010

Thanks so much Ami. Having been trashed, and I mean trashed, by one or more male reviewers, I'm glad SHE WRITES is taking up the topic of failure and success. Yes, it is easier, so much easier, not to do than to do and suffer the slings and arrows...

fran schumer commented on Five Questions's article Five Questions For...Roxana Robinson

November 2010

Loved all of this and thanks, Roxanna, but especially loved that last graf: "Angst among the Jews" or Toni MOrrison's "More Trouble for Blacks." I wonder if the same holds true for addiction memoirs. Is it reductionist to call them that?

Ah, I love reading anything Katha has to say. But now I'll go back, at her recommendation, and check out "Snapshots of a Daughter-In-Law." Thanks Katha. Fran R. Schumer

August 2010

I have a few first drafts. One ends; the other just wimps out. How do you know/feel whether to work on an old draft more or just give up and move on. Great post, Tayari. Thanks so much.
