Award-winning science writer and journalist Jessica Nordell, author of The End of Bias: A Beginning (Metropolitan).
This week's Write the Book Prompt was generously suggested by my guest, Jessica Nordell, who points out that observing our own bias can be a challenge. She suggests considering, What would you write if you could be certain that you had infinite love and acceptance - if you didn't have to worry about others' love and acceptance going away? What would you write if you felt that free?
Good luck with your work in the coming week, and tune in next week for another prompt or suggestion.
