Writing a memoir is so much more than writing down memories–it’s shedding layers of stories we’ve told ourselves for years, seeing ourselves in unflattering lights, opening up to compassion, and exposing our underbelly.
I really enjoyed this interview and the compassion Laura gives to the real-life subjects she is writing about. As a mother writing about her children sometimes, I also appreciated the thoughtful reflection on sharing too much. Thank you all!

I agree ... it's a powerful interview, and helps put the stakes in perspective.
