More Writing For Me!

This blog has been such a joy, because it’s given me a chance to combine two things I love. Running and writing. (And gradually triathlon, fitness classes, environmentalism… and, well, life.)

Which is great, because I love writing. It’s fun to take something burning in your brain and figure out exactly how to express it, and it’s even better when it resonates with others.

I had a few recent writing highlights. The first was a post that went over well in a triathlete Facebook group I’m part of:

The fact that someone called me their spirit animal because I wrote a post about sports bras that included a line about butt sweat pretty much made my day.

But not as much as getting into the Online Writing Certificate Program for novel writing through Stanford Continuing Studies!

For the next two years, I’ll be working part time on novel writing! I couldn’t be more excited. I took a class through Stanford’s online writing program this Spring to see if the workload would fit into my life and how much I would like it. I loved it.

I’m excited to keep running and writing, and looking forward to investing creative energy into a larger project.

I’ll still be here, and you can also find me writing blog posts for Sustainable Wellesley.

I’m excited to be on this journey, and so grateful to all of you who have read and responded and e-mailed me and been part of my running and writing life. Your encouragement kept me writing which led me here.

And I love here.
