Chelsea DesAutels is the author of A Dangerous Place (Sarabande Books, 2021), which was named a New York Times Editors’ Choice and described by Publishers Weekly as a “lush and transformative debut” (starred review). Chelsea writes and teaches extensively and is the founder of Freshwater Writing, which offers writer-focused, community-centered retreats, writing circles, and mentorships.
In Part 1 of my conversation with Chelsea, we talk about her experience attending and running retreats and the importance of putting yourself out there to make connections and build a life as a writer.
Check back in two weeks for part 2, where we discuss risk, rejection, and the role of poetry in difficult times.
