You own everything that happened to you. Tell your stories. If people wanted you to write warmly about them, they should have behaved better.

Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

@Annie One of my favorite lines from one of my favorite writers.

@Annie My wife and I were just talking about this quote last night in regards to whether she can truly tell her story. Love it.

@Annie Thank you for sharing these cathartic words.

@Annie “Bird by bird, buddy. Just take it bird by bird.” We say this A LOT in our house.

@Annie That’s such a great Anne Lamont quote. Don’t ever piss off a writer.

@chrisfoley @JimRain @moonmehta @BenjaminHolsteen @iChris @jean she’s one of my favorite writers and this quote is such an important reminder.
