I Write Because I Can
a collection of notes on grief, loss & life
After my mother's death, feeling untethered and
adrift as I struggled to find my bearings amid
deep grief, I accidentally discovered a way to
help navigate my sorrow through writing small
posts on Instagram.
Inspired by a line from the poet Anele Rubin, I
began each piece with, "I write because . . ." and ended with the line, "I write because I can."
I created this tiny book from those pieces, and in turn found a new way to walk in this world. In this collection, I hope that if you too are experiencing grief, you may recognize yourself in my words and feel just a little less alone.
