AT HOME: Time to Write with Kim Suhr
Brea Graber • Jun 17, 2020
Discover a bit about our Nō Studios At Home guest, Kim Suhr!
1. How do you describe yourself as an artist?
I use my writing to explore the experiences, motivations, hopes, and dreams of those who are different from me. Through living in someone else's skin awhile, reader and writer alike exercise their empathy muscles and get a more expansive view of what it means to be human. It's all about connection.
2. What's the best part of your job?
As a writer, the best part is when a reader tells me I have moved them or helped them see something in a new light. As a writing coach, the best part is when another writer achieves their dream, whatever that may be.
3. What's the best advice that you can give to someone who is exploring your career?
The words aren't going to write themselves, but if you show up and listen, they will come through for you every time.
4. What does socializing with purpose mean to you?
When we host events, Red Oak makes a donation to a local organization doing good work in the community, and we pass a hat to encourage our guests to do the same. Now, with virtual events, we share a link to the organization of the evening in hopes of amplifying our own giving.
Join us for a At Home experience with Kim Suhr on Wednesday, July 15th at 2:30pm
