Oh, to be so talented with pen & paper.<br /><br />Must have been a real inspiration and joy to hear her speak.

I need to add some of your suggestions to my reading journal.

I'm starting to think that I need another 'Drea to help me with reading. :)'Dreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18445124443770488433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8375029325235067748.post-51027310889242178452010-04-11T11:45:10.457-05:002010-04-11T11:45:10.457-05:00Lamott is BRILLIANT.

It's so honest and horrowing. She went on this CRAZY binge one afternoon. She was literally shoving bear claw doughnuts into her mouth, followed by an entire pint of Ben n' Jerrys, and a crapload of candy too. It's a huge eye-opener. She's BEEN THERE. She knows what she's talking about.<br /><br />Another one I love is Geneen Roth. :)Farty Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18395840519336226791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8375029325235067748.post-31908411488739460412010-04-11T10:43:16.277-05:002010-04-11T10:43:16.277-05:00I wasn't sure who Lamott was until the line ab...I wasn't sure who Lamott was until the line about the dimply thighs - I remember that clearly.<br /><br />I rarely feel preapproved, I rarely feel legitimate or valid.
