#206 Celebrating our loved one's creativity with Sarah Sawyer

What happens to the poetry, the paintings, the sketches and songs of our loved ones when they pass? In this beautiful conversation with Sarah Sawyer we talked about her friend and award-winning poet, Andrea Werblin Reid, who left us a stunning collections of poems called To See Yourself As You Vanish. It gave me so much precious food for thought about final wishes, the things we leave behind and what we can do for those we love as we say goodbye. In the last 3 years of her life, Andi 150 fierce, frank, witty poems on living with ovarian cancer and end of life. Before she died she asked a group of friends to do what we could to get it into the world. Sarah Sawyer is of those friends and is thrilled to share that this, her 3rd and strongest book yet--To See Yourself As You Vanish--is being represented by Rob McQuilken and will be published by Wesleyan Press September 9th. The book: https://www.weslpress.org/9780819502070/to-see-yourself-as-you-vanish/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andrea_werblin_reid_poetry/ Sarah Sawyer is a writer and a chaplain specializing in psychedelics and end of life.
