@melanie Laughed out loud to this line, “Later in the day, the sign, mangled, turned up at the front door, along with a note. The note was two pages long, typed in all capitals.”

Thank you for sharing this. I’m enjoying reading this so very much!

Oh, excellent news! I’m glad it went well.

Group V is up in the air, and given work schedules, it might be rare that the whole group is on simultaneously. But we shall avoid Mondays and Tuesdays!

I’m pleased to share that as of today, GRWT now consists of three writing groups — two with an in-person focus, and one virtual-only. We’ve added nine new writers to the Tribe in the last week!

If you’d like to be the 10th, fill out the application form at https://grwt.org/join-the-tribe/.

“But figuring out how to create “growth” at a commercial book publisher in 2019 is a problem I do not think anybody has solved yet.”

Ain’t that just the truth.

Bibliotherapy is unbelievably powerful and is the cornerstone to “Feelin’ Good”, the book that brought cognitive behavioral therapy to the mainstream in the 90s. It’s a good (and hefty) read on the subject!

The article talks a lot about using fiction as a tool but it can work equally as well with non-fiction. I love reading texts on neurobiology and mental disorders!

I also really liked that the author was open about the times it didn’t work. My therapist has definitely recommended books to me that I didn’t sync up with and made for some awkward silences at our next session.

@rckthewriter Drinks, you say? Don’t mind if I do!
