The Coffeelicious Crush #5
Being human is being flawed and broke, yet living like we are not. Liz Lazzara deals with these murky realms of humanity within relationships (failed and pleasant) to mental illness (the kind that affects us and others around us). Her voice is strong, loud, clear, and it’s easy to see why our editor, Abby Norman, has a crush on her writing.
Here’s what she has to say:
Liz Lazzara writes with raw, unflinching honesty about mental illness, something she is also an advocate for in equal measure. Lazzara is as strong in voice as she is in character. Something about the way she writes inspires gratitude in the reader — even when she may be facing insurmountable struggle, she gives so much with each piece.
(Fun Fact: Did you know that you can read the above words on Lizlazzara.com, along with several others? Check it out!)
Intrigued? We hope you are. What follows is a taste of her writing, and each piece is a recommended read.
