It's thought-provoking and fun to read. This quote rang especially true to me: "Place puts pressure on characters." I'll be moving through a few different places in my memoir - San Diego, San Francisco, Oakland, Taos, and New York City - and am starting to think deeply about each city's influence on me and my relationships. I hope I can do justice to those unique places! Love the blog, Summer! It’s thought-provoking and fun to read.
