      RIP Alice Munro, she was a master of her craft

      Just want to share one of my favourite quotes from her:

      >But I hope you will — use your brains. Use your brains. Don’t be distracted. Once you make that mistake, of being — distracted, over a man, your life will never be your own. You will get the burden, a woman always does.

      And this one that speaks to my very introverted soul:

      > Life would be grand if it weren’t for the people.

      What an absolute icon. Her stories greatly inspired me to become a writer. RIP.

      She was a legend of the short story form, and Canadian literature in general. I’ll re-read some of her stories tonight. What a life lived.
