Why I’m here and what’s in it for you!

Hello!

I'm Nancy and I'm really happy you decided to investigate my About page.

I’m writing to enourage and inspire — one story, one word at a time. Sharing our stories is powerful. There’s nothing quite like it. I share mine to encourage you to share yours.

I started blogging after my breast cancer diagnosis in 2010. In addition to blogging about all that and more, I’ve authored three books and written numerous articles for various publications.

In this space, I’ll be sharing stories and my points of view about cancer, grief, growing older, family, writing and yes, even politics. Together, we’ll be exploring vulnerability, resilience, and the power of words—the ones we say and the ones we don't.

I love it here. I hope you do/will too.

What’s in it for YOU as a free subscriber?

  • COMMUNITY

My favorite part of being a writer is making deep connections with readers like YOU. A primary goal continues to be building a community of readers who actively engage and support one another.

I promise YOU will be seen and heard here. I respond to every comment and email.

  • ACCESS

    Subscribing gets you full access to all my new articles about some of life’s messy parts: cancer and survivorship, grief and loss, family, getting older (okay, old), life as an introvert, politics and the state of our democracy, and dogs. Always dogs.

Plus, we can commiserate, and who doesn’t love doing that?
