May Pick-me-Up: Passing The Baton

 
 

One of my grad students mentioned Viola Davis's new book and I went poking around and saw this on her Instagram. WOW. 

Writing prompt for you some time soon (when you have a chance to breathe!):

Write about all the yous that passed the baton....All the yous in the midst of this thought-traffic....

I got chills hearing her speak about this. It's exactly how I have experienced my own journey, and why YA was so big for me for so long -my 17-year-old self had passed me the baton.
