Word of the week: Folderol

In this episode the hosts are joined by guest novelist and writing coach Mary
Adkins to discuss how to write from and about personal trauma without retraumatizing yourself or your readers. From the responsibility a writer has to protect their readers, to the methods a writer can take to protect their own mental health during the creative writing process, Karissa, Ash, and Mary have plenty of thoughts on this rarely-discussed subject that affects so many writers (and readers)!

Join Ash, Karissa, and Mary Adkins as they discuss how to responsibly and artfully write from trauma...
