Wonderful explanation. I am in that close revising stage of my memoir chapters now, and it is true that I feel I never want to look at them again--but I also know I am doing good work, honing in and making this thing the best it can be.

I loved this so much and then I loved the excerpt even more, I am just so excited for First Love! Every time I see the cover I get butterflies in my stomach because it reminds me of my friends and I just know this book is going to destroy me.
