i had the opportunity to travel up the California coast not long ago to visit some friends. While I was there, my friend Eleanor, who is a member of TellOurLifeStories.com, suggested that author Molly Dwyer who lives in the area was giving a workshop that weekend and maybe that would be of interest to me.

It was a great idea, of course, and I happily went to the 2 hour workshop. In it Molly gave us some great ideas about writing our stories. We did 2 hours of writing exercises and came away with insights on how to get started and continue to be inspired as we write.

Molly consented to do an interview and I have a podcast with her for members only that gives a slice of what she shared with us that day. She is generous in her help to writers and willingly provided feedback and ideas about the writing process.

It is an enjoyable interview.

Molly wrote Requiem for the Author of Frankenstein. It is a wonderful book about the life of Mary Shelley
