I really related to this, Claire. I feel like this has been me the past three years working my way to a dyslexia diagnosis with one of my children. And now, it is me with every decision I make regarding how to best educate him as we figure out what works for him and how to do everything. I thought once I knew, then we would be able to progress--but really, as we progress in levels of education, there are new challenges that are presented that we have to figure out. So, I just keep swinging the bat, praying the decisions I make are best for him and not hindering him further.
I just want you to know that I think you are super smart, savvy, sophisticated, beautiful kind and talented. You're doing an amazing job juggling family life and doing a very, very hard thing. I look forward to your next novel. I enjoy watching your career. I feel an odd kinship in that I'm from Greenville, SC. Many of my friends went to Furman. It's a fine school. I enjoy your newsletter/substack. You inspire me.
OMG the sunscreen song! So good. 😂 Thanks for sharing what's been working for you—process is so unique but there are always little nuggets to take away from hearing how other authors approach it.
