Today’s Mother Writer is Lucy Beckley, a writer, poet and marketing consultant based in Cornwall. As a regular contributor to Motherscope over the past year, I’ve grown to be an immense fan of Lucy’s beautiful writing and the way she strings together a seemingly simple moment with profound insight and validating conclusions. In this episode, Lucy walks us through her own process of reframing the mundane as marvelous and shares the steps she takes to find stories hidden in plain sight. At the end of the episode, Lucy lets us in on her current writing project and also reads an excerpt from her story, “Kisses in the Sky.” If you’re a mother who finds yourself second-guessing about the worthiness of your stories, turn up the volume and sit tight, we’re here to flip the script on that limited thinking and have you reaching for your Notes app.
