"Your sentences are your vehicle." --Denne Michele Norris
Denne Michele Norris (When the Harvest Comes and Both/And) returns to the MiP podcast to discuss everything leading up to her debut novel, including breaking from a "quitting" mentality to one where she invested herself fully into the writing process. A process that has lead her to an amazing career as Editor-in-Chief of Electric Literature and editor of the upcoming anthology Both/And. Denne shares her fears of not reaching her dream up until the day she received an offer and how the pursuit of what you desire most can strengthen your focus.
