Hi, I’m Nora.

I’m an author, a speaker, and the author of several funny books about sad things. I’m also a remarried widow raising a beautiful blended family with my current, very much alive husband (knock on wood). This is the home for all of my writing, and my podcast, Thanks for Asking.

In this house, we believe:

  • Feeling deeply is a gift.

  • We don’t move on from grief, we move forward with it.

  • Shoulding yourself is a waste of time.

  • Audiobooks count as reading.

  • C’s get degrees (your best is good enough).

Most of this Substack is free; a paid subscription makes the work possible and makes a ton of work accessible to everyone free of charge, including:

  • ~100 back catalog episodes of TTFA

  • 400+ episodes of It's Going To Be OK

  • An entire YouTube channel with 2 videos/month

  • Free weekly essays

  • "Scholarships" for those who can't afford a paid membership

    Welcome. There will be typos.
