Love this post, Nana. Your workshop in Lisbon was transformative for me as a writer and simply as a human being. Your intelligence, insight and compassion lit up the room.

Nana, I love this (and it's even helpful for me to better articulate what I want us to be doing in history writing sessions with my senior thesis writers!)
