I loved every moment of this thoughtful, open and wise conversation. Opened up new ways of thinking about my own work and left me with much food for thought. Thank you both 🙏🏽
As someone who is slowly groping towards the concept of writing my own life story, I found Clover’s approach to writing memoirs that are, in a sense, extended meditations on the way a particular value such as home has played out in her life, very interesting. A very candid and thoughtful conversation, it gave me a lot of material to think about
I will watch this on repeat for a while. I struggle with why I bother to write drafts of memoir, especially about the most traumatic and confusing things. Can it be helpful to anyone other than myself. Yes it can. I also love Rothko. The Rothko Chapel in Houston has been a sacred space for me.

The drafting is so important in memoir, because we shift and change as do our feelings. Good luck!
This was wonderful, thank you both for sharing your wisdom and experience so warmly xx
