Keep Moving: Notes on Loss, Creativity, and Change
(OverDrive MP3 Audiobook, OverDrive Listen)
"A meditation on kindness and hope, and how to move forward through grief." —NPR
"A shining reminder to learn all we can from this moment, rebuilding ourselves in the darkness so that we may come out wiser, kinder, and stronger on the other side." —The Boston Globe
"Powerful essays on loss, endurance, and renewal." —People
For fans of Glennon Doyle, Cheryl Strayed, and Anne Lamott, a collection of quotes and essays on facing life's challenges with creativity, courage, and resilience.
When Maggie Smith, the award-winning author of the viral poem "Good Bones," started writing inspirational daily Twitter posts in the wake of her divorce, they unexpectedly caught fire. In this deeply moving book of quotes and essays, Maggie writes about new beginnings as opportunities for transformation. Like kintsugi, the Japanese art of mending broken ceramics with gold, Keep Moving celebrates the beauty and strength on the other side of loss. This is a book for anyone who has gone through a difficult time and is wondering: What comes next?

February 10, 2020
Poet Smith (Good Bones) reflects on loss, beauty, and transformation in a thoughtful but not entirely satisfying collection. The slight volume compiles inspirational tweets—all concluding with the admonition to “keep moving”—that Smith began writing in the wake of a divorce. The messages are loosely organized into three parts (“Revision,” “Resilience,” and “Transformation”) and interspersed with short personal essays. When read individually, the bite-size sentiments succeed as wise and compassionate pieces of encouragement. But bound together in book format, they blur together and fail to leave much of an impression. The bland, minimalist design doesn’t do the work any favors, either. Meanwhile, the essays, which carry on the same themes, but add details of Smith’s own experiences, are uneven. While some rely on tired metaphors of transformation (fire, chrysalises), others have striking and memorable imagery that showcases Smith’s eye as a poet: “like when you pull your hand out of a bucket of water, and the water takes back the space.” Smith’s reflections on her struggles with miscarriage and postpartum depression are especially affecting. Readers will wish her obvious talents had been used in a way that does them justice.
