S2 Ep6: Rediscovering the Joy of Creative Writing (w/ Lucia Orellana)

In this week’s episode, Sue interviews  Lucia Orellana, an Ecuadorian social and clinical psychologist-turned-poet and one of Writing Through’s long-term volunteers. They discuss how living in different cultures, places, and languages can change you, the differences between writing poetry in English and Spanish, and the challenges one may face when translating between both languages. Lucia explains how she rediscovered her first joy of writing later in life and the interesting ways in which she deals with her inner critic. It’s a fascinating and inspiring chat!
