“Complicated Grief was written in larger and more coherent (if disparate) shapes. The question was how they fit together. The mind is coherent, trust that was the best writing advice I ever got (I got it from Carole Maso and I pass it on). It's true, and clearer and clearer as one grows and gains an improved sense of who one actually is (as versus who one was supposed to be).” IfsWritingMindTogetherGrowsGriefWrittenAdviceFitShapesGainsComplicatedSupposed To BeVersusWriting AdviceComplicated Grief Author:Laura Mullen
