I Write Hard Things

Karen Wesley, Rev. Evelyn Bourne (Ambilike), GG Renee Hill

I share stories of grief, healing, and resilience from the perspective of a black woman in midlife. With humor and honesty, I explore the complexity of motherhood, marriage, parenting, autism, mental health, creativity, self-discovery, and black culture.
