I’m so glad you posted about this today of all days, as I just happen to have received my first piece of professional feedback ever on a tiny memoir excerpt / personal essay. I’m feeling all kinds of feelings, but your piece grounded me. Thank you!

Hi Jude, I'm so glad this helped! I was inspired to share more after our chat the other day, so thank you for talking with me. I appreciate you. Good luck with publishing your memoir excerpt / personal essay!

I SO identify with this! There are even times when editors suggest an edit that changes the meaning or tone of the relationship I'm portraying. Rage! I've been worried about this with my memoir, so perfect time to read your post!
