Tish Melton: We Can Do Hard Things

Cal looked over Drawist’s shoulder. “A superhero?”

Tal peeped under Drawist’s arm. “Ooooooh! Metallic gold boots and belt. Faaaannnn-seee!”

Words from Typist:

I’ve been reading The Writing Life by Annie Dillard.

Cancer-ing -- I Did It My Way. (Tossing out random titles here to see if any of them are sticky.)

… I feel kind of like today’s drawing. 🦸🏻‍♀️

She goes because she must; this alone is life. Following the work wherever it leads.
