2-23 Morning glory … good listening

Up around 5 and to my pleasure, the heater had been running for about 15 minutes.

I got busy working blogs and  new project with my second Facebook page. Then commenced novel writing.

After some time listening to Mormon Matters, Lietta found a podcast interview on John Dehlin’s Mormon Stories podcast with Tara Westover, the author of Educated which she has been listening to on a CD.

Educated: A Memoir by [Westover, Tara]
Tara is the author of the book Educated. Born in Idaho to a father opposed to public education, she never attended school. She spent her days working in her father’s junkyard or stewing herbs for her mother, a self-taught herbalist and midwife. She was seventeen the first time she set foot in a classroom. After that first encounter with education, she pursued learning for a decade, graduating magna cum laude from Brigham Young University in 2008 and subsequently winning a Gates Cambridge Scholarship. She earned an MPhil from Trinity College, Cambridge in 2009, and in 2010 was a visiting fellow at Harvard University. She returned to Cambridge, where she was awarded a PhD in history in 2014.
