About the Author

- I think that writing memoir is the most potent action I can take in this world. When I sit down to write – not an easy place to get to – I feel all my energies and abilities come into one focus, one laser point – I feel like a bird, pausing in mid-air, then plummeting down into the waves, intent on that one fish that will save it. I write, then come up for air, then look at what I have unearthed. It usually looks like just a handful of dust, not worth much. I could easily toss it out and forget about it. But I don’t. Not anymore. I add it to the pile. I am not sure what I am building, but this is all I have. For some reason, it is my most precious thing, the one thing that feels purely my own.

Hey Marta,
Had I not checked in with this site last week I wouldn't have known about the salon.com article. Yesterday I posted my rebuttal(s) to SYDA's rebuttal and just want to say thank you for spurring my impromptu, one-man “weekend writing workshop.” Whew!
Also, I’m glad to see this exchange taking place in a more public, less pro-SY or ex-SY-only forum.
Best,
Lucid
