Our friend Nathan went on a bike trip 20+ yrs ago (when he was 29) across the U.S. and just completed his epic (and beautiful) graphic novel chronicling that journey he and his buddy, Matt, made. Visit his site here to experience it and word on the street is to check it out before the publishers chop-out-all-the-good-parts ;)
Amanda Gorman - National Youth Poet Laureate
Gorman says she doesn't view her speech impediment as a crutch—rather, sees it as a gift, ”I always saw it as a strength because since I was experiencing these obstacles in terms of my auditory and vocal skills, I became really good at reading and writing. I realized that at a young age when I was reciting the Marianne Deborah Williamson quote that 'Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate, our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure' to my mom."
