content: I love Anne Lamott. I use her book, Bird by Bird in my writing classes taught through Santa Monica college community education. And this book is filled with her truth and she is both reverent, very funny and can also bring tears to your eyes. She can write about how to celebrate her son's birthday or her hair and have you engaged and loving her to pieces. Thank you, Anne for sharing the deep and humorous truth of your heart and soul. This is why I read (and write.)Rachelle Benveniste
