Showing up for your Work - with Nicholas Selig and Angela Brown

<p>Showing up for your work can mean different things to different people - it can mean how authentically you show up in the work itself or how you prioritize your time and space to physically show up for your practice. Today during our Lit&#39; It and Quit It segment, we’re going to talk about the latter with a good friend of mine, Nicholas Selig, poet and the Editor-in-Chief for The Miramichi Reader.</p> <p>Following that, we’ll get right into my conversation with Angela Brown, author of OLIVIA STRAUSS IS RUNNING OUT OF TIME, the story of a woman who has no choice left but to enjoy the adventure of life—and its surprises—in a funny and emotionally moving comedy of errors about the gifts of growing older.</p> <p>If you would like to get your own copy of any of our guests books, please visit our ⁠<a href="https://bookshop.org/shop/shouldbewritingpod">⁠Bookshop.org⁠</a> Affiliate⁠ page and your purchase will go to helping a small bookstore stay in business! </p> <p>To follow our guests and/or host, find them online here: </p> <p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/nicholas_selig/">⁠Nicholas Selig⁠</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/angelabrownbooks/">⁠Angela Brown⁠</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/edenboudreau/">⁠⁠Eden Boudreau ⁠</a></p>

In conversation with Chelene Knight

<p>Today I have a very special episode for you! We’re going to take a break from our Lit it and quit segment, so save all those great questions of yours for next week, and we&#39;ll jump right into my interview with not only an award winning, best selling and highly respected author but my own personal mentor, Chelene Knight. </p> <p>On last weeks episode, I discussed support systems with Denise Da Costa and we agreed that those systems can come from family or friends or muses, but I think if we really grind it down to a fine point, the best kind of support any writer can ask for, is for someone to believe in their work. </p> <p>And that’s what Chelene has done for me, and many many other writers over her tremendous career, as well as once again with her recent book Let It Go: Free Yourself from Old Beliefs and Find a New Path to Joy</p> <p>If you would like to get your own copy of LET IT GO, please visit our ⁠<a href="https://bookshop.org/shop/shouldbewritingpod" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Bookshop.org Affiliate</a>⁠ page and your purchase will go to helping a small bookstore stay in business! </p> <p>To follow our guests and/or host, find them online here: </p> <p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/nourishing.word/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Chelene Knight</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/edenboudreau/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">⁠Eden Boudreau ⁠</a></p>
