How we came to be...

This group is a testament to the transformative impact that friendship and writing can have on grief, as well as the incredible power of accountability. In late November 2019, Write Girl Karen suffered the devastating loss of her mother. Just five short months later, her father passed. The grief was overwhelming. Some days getting out of bed was too much to bear, so much so that dear friend and fellow author Write Girl Linda  stepped up. The two women made a pact. Recognizing the uplifting power of words, they would call each other every weekday morning to write together. Karen had to get out of bed, and Linda had to put words on the page. Seven months later they had an established writing practice when Write Girl Tana came along, drawn by her own need for a writing sisterhood. Together, they formed a tribe— The Get Write to it Girls.
