What a gift this site is, Carol. Thanks for sharing so much wonderful advice, and especially for leaving us with the “Self-Directed Resilience Workshop.” I’m glad to know you’ll still be writing for the Prairie Wind. Happy travels on your Writer’s Journey!

That’s a great workshop you’re leaving behind, Carol. I have learned a lot during the Irrepressible Writers’s run, and I know I’ll be referring to your posts in the future. But as you also know, I agree with pursuing that yearning need to, well, to write the book that must be written!

Good luck with that, and whatever else is next!

Hello, Carol, I found you on Twitter and just spent a delightful half-hour delving into your inspiring posts! I posted your link on my Works in Progress Blog. Thanks so much for sharing. I need to process the information, but I believe it will be very helpful understanding and accepting those transitional moments.
Blessings,
Rosie

Great advice, Carol. I also try to set goals that are more about effort and less about outcome. Thanks!!

I especially liked the Trib article. It reminded me of my recent attempts to explain to someone why I thought it was a blessing to have been treated badly just for being a member of an ethnic minority and for feeling excluded. It gives me an empathy that I think most people who do not have first hand experience with that kind of rejection do not understand. And in some sense it is a part of who I am.

Hi Carol, I hope that Chicago winter isn’t too brutal this year. And I hope your work with the free lance editor is productive. Great photos!
