In our household we call it "using the good china", having both grown up in families who saved stuff "for best". The time is now, and tomorrow someone could be putting your things in boxes for an estate sale.
I'd never thought of it in relation to writing, but I'm totally on board.
Also, as someone who lost his mum at 10, losing both parents by just a little bit older? Man, that's a tough ride.
I believe this too - in writing and in life. So good to be reminded of it and to hear it in your words. 🤍

This is so good! And so true. Now I'm thinking of all the stories of my own grandparents haha.
This so good, Amy! Thank you for the reminder and encouragement.
Thanks for the reminder, Amy, not to hold back. And for the mention. I hope to see some of what you draw this year!
