",,,and all the ways love continues its work long past the span of a life." I've been encountering just that in this thing I've been writing. Thank you for this post. Perfect timing, Beth.

Oh my gosh, yes. THIS is your project. Yes, precisely. You know what I think, Abby? Our notes to each other in Substack have become our new shared diary.

Ideas… yes. Love them. Reorienting to essays from memoir to give more weight to ideas. The way my mind eats the world. I, however will not be in the workshop live as I’m still traveling in Europe and will be in Brussels on Saturday. I wish you the best in your last workshop (for a while) and look forward to the replays when I return stateside.

I have given a great deal of thought to the love that continues to work its magic after a lifetime has ended. In fact, my poetry manuscript (yes, still shopping it around) touches on this very idea.
