In this episode I dig into her past to try and discover what made her such a prolific writer and despite her traumatic childhood, how did she manage to inspire so many people? This episode has laughs, love, literature, prose and power. I hope you enjoy listening to it anywhere near as much as I enjoyed recording it. &amp;nbsp; SHOW NOTES Still I Rise How Maya Angelou writes More on Maya's writing process I know why the caged bird sings How to write a poem Maya's advice for Writers Maya Angelou on &quot;The Art of Fiction&quot; There are SO many great clips of Maya speaking, performing and giving advice on YouTube that I engourage you to find a quiet corner with your notebook and a nice pen (and maybe a bourbon infused coffee?!) and search them for yourself. I would start with any conversations she's had with Oprah. &amp;nbsp; This was such a wonderful episode to enjoy. Thank you for listening. x &amp;nbsp; Ten Words http://jeremy.live/podcast <iframe title="Libsyn Player" style="border: none" src="//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/6636874/height/90/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/88AA3C/" height="90" width="600" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe> https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/content/21216025
