First-Person Singular Essay Up! /February 10, 2023 by Kate Vieira

With many thanks to Memoir Monday editor Sari Botton, my beautiful writing group, and the Chippewa Valley Writer’s Guild 2022 summer retreat, at which I read part of this essay at an open mic and people laughed at the right parts, I present “The Bedroom”! It’s part of a book I’m working on about single parenting, home repair, and belonging. I’m calling it Broken Home.

WRITING IN THE WORLD

I’m an educator, researcher, traveler, and single mom who writes. I write first thing in the morning, last thing before bed, at my kitchen table, at my desk, on planes, on the backs of receipts, on my phone.

 I write for a public. And I write for myself. I write to discover truths about the world, about myself, about others. This blog is about writing in all of these roles, in all of these spaces.
