—Alexandra Fournier, [EDIT] magazine
“Wild Words does the near impossible: equips the doubting, frenzied mind with the rhythms and tools it needs to drop down into the body of the writer and, finally, surrender to write. Every season, ritual, and routine feels like a deep breath into creativity.”
—Lily Diamond, Author of Kale & Caramel
