She writes so beautifully and profoundly about her life's journeys, tragedies, and copings with those tragedies. She is like her generation's Joan Didion. I really admire those types of writers the most: the ones whose unglorified stories come from the gut, and who bare their souls without the masks of ideal lies.

Great advice from Cheryl Strayed: "Write from a place of humility. Stop whining and get to work." Thanks for sharing, Vince. :)

Yes, her advice does not come from a place of arrogance, nor ego. I couldn't agree more, Bill. :)

An absolute kick in the pants, but a necessary and truthful one. Thank you for this link.
It's true that coal miners simply dig, but it's also true that they get paid to do so - the same cannot be said for most writers.
Well somethings gotta pay the bills
