Once I became a mom I realized that the reason why my own mom was the only one who could ever seem to find anything in my house growing up was that she was the only one who ever actually looked. So even though she wasn’t trying to find them, leave it to my mom…

Write Letters With Me!
Do you have a couple of minutes to watch a video? I’d love to share why I’m writing a letter a day for the month of March. I share about how I received a stack of thank you letters from seventh grade students who I spoke to recently on memoir writing. The kids were awesome…
You’re invited!
I’m really excited about this reading with Erin Brown! I hope to see you there. 🙂 Love, Molly PS – I had a new essay recently published on The Manifest-Station if you’d like to check in out.
A Launch in Photos
This is how my book launch party felt… Wrapped in love. (With my longtime friend and co-worker Cat Gates.) Surrounded by family. (With my aunt Mary Margaret aka Mimi.) Signing books. (With Stella Comparato – I copied her hairstyle.) Laughing with longtime friends. (With the Potwin Elementary crew – Beth, Nina, Kelly & Alexa) Attempting new…
A Graduation, A Party & A Remembrance
Now that my memoir Float On is officially for sale, I’ve gone from feeling like a mother with a newborn baby to a mother with a kid graduating from college. It needed so much to get to this point – brutal honesty, sustained discipline, and constant editing. Now it’s about to go out into the world…

Please join me at the Launch Party for Float On, December 1st at Van Go in Lawrence! Love, Molly
They Happen
I wrote about one if the scariest accidents of my life in my memoir Float On. I’ll save the details for you to read about when it is released December 1st, but I’ll share a quote – “No one forced me to give him the injections. I did it to myself and it was an…
Curiosity, Creativity & Courage
My memoir Float On was conceived on the mystical Greek island of Patmos. I was attending a writer’s salon and I’ve written about those two weeks, but in one word –  magical. Cheryl Strayed, Brian Lindstrom, Rachel DeWoskin and Zayd Dohrn inspired and instructed us in an unmatched setting. I met a tribe of people with whom I…
A Simple Question
“I’m working on writing a speech and this book I’m reading recommends asking the people close to you a question. Can you tell me what I’ve taught you?” It was a risky question, especially to ask to my daughters. But it resulted in such an interesting conversation with my husband Robert that I decided to…
