Yes to Easy Beauty, 1000x. It's a memoir that reads like a novel which adds to its already tremendous appeal. 2023 and I remember that because I'm be forever salty that it lost to Stay True!

I have tried to make a writing project Gantt chart and it was terrible and unhelpful. It did keep me frustratingly busy for a while, so it gets high marks for procrastination-that-might-be-mistaken-for-work.

Haha, it would never occur to me to do this! I can see how it would be that type of procrastination in disguise. That's a whole nother topic !

Yes to Easy Beauty. It blew my mind. In so many ways.

And I can promise you that I will never, ever ask you if your book is finished. Ha! And if I do, you can punch me. (And you're right that it is just the worst question to ask a writer.)
