Hello and Welcome to Audacious Women, Creative Lives! Join 1200+ subscribers in this vibrant, growing community. Hi! I’m Anne. I left academia and life as an empty-nester to pursue my dream of travel and being an actual, real, full-time writer—finally, at the age of 52!
I’m excited by this new direction, Anne. I’ve rearranged my life (not without some challenge) to give myself more time for various writerly and creative pursuits. But it has been a rather lonely pursuit at times. Connecting with a community of like-minded women via your platform and guidance sounds like just the tonic!
This is great, Anne. Really clear and focussed, and a great introduction to what you are writing about - and what different levels of your work subscribers will get. Love your setting out of themes, eg: 'How do women navigate what their cultures expect of them as women with the writers they want to be?' This seems very relevant to me today, thinking of the struggles Amy Levy had even as a well educated, successful woman writer in Victorian times... today doesn't feel so different, in many ways.
