In this second part of my conversation with Kate Schapira, author of "Lessons from the Climate Anxiety Counseling Booth," we cover the squishier parts of writing, including:
- The process of deciding just how vulnerable to be in your writing
- The emotional difference between writing poetry and writing prescriptive non-fiction
- How her inner critic is a salty SOB
- How a writing group holds you accountable to write despite what your inner critic is telling you
- A peek inside the mechanics and beauties of Kate's writing group
- The illusion of innocence (WOW this really blew my mind open)
- Trying to be a good person vs. trying to have a good effect
