Hey gang,
I’ve got some fun updates for you. First, I went to California for three weeks. I camped under the redwoods in Big Sur, ate several lettuce-wrapped In-N-Out burgers, and attended two beautiful weddings. Ultimately, either too much gelato or not enough sleep distracted my immune system and I returned home with a little baby head cold. Boo, hiss!
With a clogged nose and a pounding head, I spent a whole day on my couch watching Dopesick and talking on the phone with girlfriends. I may otherwise have felt too busy and bogged down for those types of crucial post-travel self-care activities so I am grateful to my sniffles for slowing me down for a minute.
But alas, I am back at it! Here’s the REAL news.
HALF WILD is on the move
The book is on its way from the printer RIGHT NOW. (Read the first two chapters here.) Like an expectant mother in her nesting phase, I’m readying its room on Amazon and I will not hesitate to let you know when the time is right to come meet the baby. It will be available as a paperback and a Kindle ebook for now.
Also, I’m doing the podcast circuit! Okay, not really, but my publisher is an enterprising and inspiring nomad and she hosts a powerful show about creativity, vulnerability and living with your heart unleashed. Abigail was kind enough to have me on to chat about the book, the process, and the life being lived behind the scenes.
Give it a listen if you would like to hear me justify my pretentious word choices and wax euphoric about the beauty of fall in Asheville, among many other things.
(Listen on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.)
You’ll be hearing from me again soon as the countdown continues. Thank you for being here.
Whitney
