Published in a magazine called Double Take, she admits her first feeling on seeing her work in print wasn't pride, but an urge to"go buy every copy of this magazine so nobody reads it". "I feel like it is a gift that people feel that, kind of... open and warm towards me… But also, I've had to really learn.
"And so I just try to greet people with gratitude and compassion and love, which I genuinely feel for the people who read my work and love it."Now, following the success of Wild, another of her works has been adapted for the screen. "When I was in the deep suffering in the years right after my mum died in my twenties, it was books I turned to, collections of poetry and collections of essays, and novels and plays, to see the humanity, to see the universal stories of love and loss and suffering and triumph.Strayed says she has also learned to gain insights from the most unexpected of places.
