Where I'm From...

Hi, dear friends!

I wanted to let you know about something kinda cool I’ll be doing tomorrow afternoon. The talented writer and producer Alyson Shelton is interviewing me for her Instagram live series, Where I’m From, on Instagram, Friday July 25, at 2:00 pm EST.

Alyson asks writers to submit a poem inspired by George Ella Lyon’s poem, “Where I’m From,” for her interviews. I was hesitant about doing it since I’m as far from a poet as you can imagine. I think I’ve written five poems my entire life, the majority of which were in MIDDLE SCHOOL! But I admire Alyson and have loved her IG series, and was grateful she asked me to participate. So I gave it a shot. And I’m thrilled I did. It was such a beautiful and creative exercise. I love what I ended up with and can’t wait to share it with her and you tomorrow!!!

You can find me on Instagram at @rebeccamorrisonwriter and Alyson at @byalysonshelton.

See you tomorrow. :)
