About this episode

Lourdes shares a personal note about the origins and evolution of the podcast amidst her moving process.

No story this week. I'm moving, the WiFi is gone, and the room is in boxes. Instead: a personal note about why I started Written Works For You, By You, what I thought it would be, and what it became. The silence, the submissions that didn't come, the dead voices that became the point. The dog who got me through it. The notebook I found while packing. The room moves with me. It always has. It always will. Back next week with "The Overcoat" by Gogol. Send me your words: writtenworksforyoubyyou@gmail.com I'm still listening.
