We talk a lot about the business of writing, but there is a personal element of writing that has seen me through various hardships in my life. Grief, especially, is one of them. Sadly, I know grief intimately. Over the years, I’ve lost people I loved both quickly and heartbreakingly slow. Writing has been an integral part of making sense of loss, of archiving loss, of healing from loss.
