"About 15 years ago, I tried and failed to publish a version of this book. Over the decades it has had a few lives, and countless rejections, before finally getting published (when I was 50!)."
Can’t wait to read it. Sounds like a blast rather instead of a blastoma. My beginnings were much more modest so my memoir was spared the lawyers’ assessment. But the “sensitivity screening” was equally repulsive though probably much less costly. I took neither the PC advice nor the unsolicited editorial suggestions. But good on you. You made it through. 💪🏼
What an inspiring post. From Proust to Mary Karr—that’s quite a group of mentors!
