Katherine Min is a close friend of our social worker, Merryl since they met working at Plymouth State University in New Hampshire in the early 1990’s. Katherine is a professor and author with incurable breast cancer. She has faced her illness with relentless curiosity, honesty and intelligence.

Her latest essay, “Writing When Your Life Depends On It” has just been published in The Rumpus. It is a beautiful and brilliant essay and will, guaranteed, be the best thing you read today.
