“I don’t regret what I wrote, I regret not being more prepared.” This line really hit me Andrea! My second ever published essay was in NYT Modern Love, I had no idea what to expect afterwards and it was like a gut punch. Strangers were sending me the nicest messages but the people closest to me ghosted me for a long time. Growing pains for this relatively new writer!
Thank you for the Deepest Lake shout-out and I am so glad you are continuing to share your experience and knowledge in terms of the viral essay experience. You have such a good story and we all can learn from it!
Looking forward to your and Rebecca‘s webinar!

Thank you, Istiaq. I’m sorry you had that experience too. This is the challenge for nonfiction writers.
