On falling in love again

I couldn't quite find the words, so I put it all in this video

Could this be something? How do I know for sure? Can I really do this again? Am I ready?

On starting over, New Relationship Energy (or NRE, as we say in the polyamorous lexicon), creative obsession, and the pressure, process, and pleasure of the second book.

Whether it’s a relationship or a creative obsession, what kind of person are you in the very first flush of falling in love?

You know I always love hearing from you, so hit reply to this email or leave a comment. Deliveries via trained falcon and coded sendings in dreams also welcome.

Also curious to hear your thoughts on video — after getting over my perfectionism, I have to admit this option really does make my life easier! Should I do more of these? Let me know.

Sending you love from Amsterdam, till next time.

My first book, ASK ME: A MEMOIR OF DARING TO LOVE DIFFERENTLY, is out in paperback, audiobook and e-book. It’s been longlisted for this year’s Women’s Prize for Nonfiction, and this week I’m off to London to celebrate that at the Women’s Prize Summer Party! See you there?
