I’ve been on a two week writing retreat, away from my hometown Los Angeles to focus on writing my book. I’ve also been in conversation with some of you during this time. Today I am digging and looking through the archive I brought with me, a little piece of home which is part of my journey as I write this book. It was also important for me to step away for a moment from Los Angeles to focus. I didn’t know how important this would be until I got here. In fact, I didn’t think I’d need it since the book is so focused on LA. Thank you @dennistonhill for offering me a place to write and think. And to be in peace with nature–beyond grateful for this opportunity. Thank you @commonwealthandcouncil and my editor, friend and great support Elizabeth @emendezberry! At One World @oneworldbooks Mil gracias to the team here for making sure I was comfortable. This will be my first book I’ve ever written. I can’t wait to come back home and continue with my writing journey 📚
