What a great write-up, Carlo! I was at this event and I, too, wanted to clap at many of Carvell Wallace's comments. "The point of a body is to love," is one of his quotes that I wrote down. Just beautiful. And that idea of his that you noted, that we all have a responsibility to ourselves, to each other and to the earth to recover from our trauma.... YES! I loved that so much. I enjoyed hearing from all of the authors. There was something about Mr. Wallace's comments, though. Profound and moving, and very energizing for me as I work on my memoir.
Lovely to see Sylvia Brownrigg and Rachel Howard on that panel. I loved Rachel's The Lost Night (talk about high stakes memoir) and Sylvia's Pages for You. Enjoyed hearing your voiceover too.
