For those of you who attended (and those of you who didn’t!), here are the links I included in the handout at my Part Time Writer, Full Time Mom workshop this past weekend. Some of these I mentioned specifically in the talk, and some are just for further reading. (A big thank you to author Pooja Makhijani for helping me with some of these links!)
Books I’ve enjoyed:
168 Hours: You Have More Time Than You Think by Laura Vanderkam (her interview with author Yvonne Ventresca)
Buddhism for Mothers: A Calm Approach to Caring for Yourself and Your Children by Sarah Napthali (not a writing book, but great for some perspective)
Hilarious stickfigure cartoon post
