Loved this piece! I can agree with the points you made about what helps with grief! And mentioning your sci-fi writing has reminded me why I enjoy my own sci-fi stories as well.
Thank you Jennifer! Stephen King once said "Fiction is the truth inside the lie." I couldn't agree more. Inside the core of our stories, layered with imagination, illusion and fantasy is the raw, organic truth of what it means to be human. Writing helps me sort all that out <3 I can't wait to read your stories!
That’s a great quote! I couldn’t agree with him more and that makes so much sense. You’re certainly inspiring me to move a bit faster than I have been with my stories. I appreciate it and can’t wait to share with you!
I agree with everything you wrote. I miss Sam so much. Before my mother died, she ask me Please keep an eye on Sandy. So when Sam passed away I felt like I’d let mom down. But I knew deep down I hadn’t. We had a blizzard three days before she died, and she was out in the snow shoveling way too much and on the third day she was gone. I find myself preparing myself for the anniversary of her death Two or three weeks in advance. It was just so sad. She was a girl full of life and to be gone so quickly none of us could believe it. I love the song you shared about the sun. I remember when we were going to the hospital there was a break in the sky and told me how you knew at moment that she was gone and for us we knew she'd made it to heaven
