Congrats, Heidi. This was beautiful to read! I graduated from SDSU over 20 years ago, and I’ve been wanting to visit Brookings again. I’ll be sure to look for this bookstore.
Heidi, congratulations on yet another book for us! I have mine on pre-order and hope it arrives soon. And you are correct, this gig ain't easy. I do write for my living but the bulk of the income comes from a combination of my newsletter and what I call writing "adjacent" pursuits. Workshops, speaking engagements, etc. I consider myself very fortunate to be pulling it off, even if it is a precarious, wobbly structure my whole existence depends on. But at least no one is telling me what to do. Here's to you on your big day!
