Please join me in welcoming Jo Renfro to “Getting to the Heart of Why We Write” in today’s episode! You may notice today’s show is out on a Friday instead of a Thursday–we’ve got the cold season blowing through my house so we’re moving a bit slower in general.
It’s giving me a chance to practice being patient through this season of life, just like Jo advises in the episode!
Jo is the author and illustrator of the picture book, Peg Gets Crackin’. Peg’s adventures will continue, just as Jo’s own adventures will (hiking the Appalachian trail and more!). So stay tuned for more books!
Some Highlights:
The joy of sharing your in-home library with extended family.
Starting small to build your community in a new place.
Sparking ideas with fresh air and fresh colors.
How texture can inspire writing.
Final words of wisdom:
Life is a journey, it’s happening now because that’s how it’s supposed to happen. Be patient with your journey, live it!
