“There was nothing to lose and everything to gain.” That line stopped me. I felt it in my chest. I can see how deeply connected you are to this woman’s story, and I admire the steady, honest, quietly defiant way you're bringing her to life. I’m inspired by your commitment to writing with integrity. It reminds me why I fell in love with storytelling in the first place. Thank you for sharing this moment so openly. This is the kind of work that gives history breath again.
"I have nothing to lose and everything to gain by being radically dedicated to what I love. I believe this to be true for all of us." I'm with you, Jen. And thank you kindly for the mention 🌸

Thanks, Laura! Love the feeling of falling into a new project.
