Isabel what you maybe don’t know is that sometimes when I’m broaching what seem to be impossible vulnerabilities (places of my heart I can barely stand), I think about you reading it. You are such a generous reader and dauntless writer and caring human, so I think, what guts would it take for me to really meet someone like Isabel with this work?

So thank you for the kind words and your presence in general. I have many secret teachers, and you are one.

Incredible writing here Courtney. You really know how to tap into what's real! I relate so completely, I actually have a scene in my story where my characters heart is taken from his chest and placed on a scale.
