Valley Haggard has written in short and long-form all her life. She is a big fan of the postcard, the 6-word memoir, and drawers full of unfinished manuscripts. She has slept in tents, hostels, motels, couches, tool sheds, log cabins, bunk beds, and ship bowels for short periods of time, and the house she grew up in for much longer than that. She has lived in Virginia, New York, Italy, Colorado, Arkansas, and Alaska, holding jobs as a Waffle House waitress, Dude Ranch Cabin Girl, cruise ship stewardess, and hotel maid. She has written book reviews, author interviews, and first-person columns; judged fiction contests and fellowships, and sat on non-profit writing boards. She is the recipient of a Richmond Magazine  2014 Theresa Pollak Prize, a 2015 Style Weekly Women in the Arts Award, and the winner of the 2018 James River Writers' Emyl Jenkins award. The founder of Richmond Young Writers in 2009, Valley now leads creative nonfiction marathons, workshops, and retreats for adults. She is the founder of Life in 10 Minutes, the author of The Halfway House for Writers and Surrender Your Weapons: Writing to Heal, and the co-editor of Nine Lives: a Life in 10 Minutes Anthology. She has a handsome husband, a brilliant son, an addictive personality, and a voracious appetite for all things word. Her memoir, There's No Accounting for the Strangeness of Things will be published in December 2021.

Life in 10 Minutes is a collection of stories that are brave and true. Sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes hilarious. Usually a bit of both.

Welcome to the Life in 10 Minutes Podcast: Episode 1! Hosts Ben Krumwiede and Valley Haggard are thrilled to dive into the big, beautiful, brave and true world of stories written 10 minutes at a time, starting with Valley telling a story about an unfortunate incident with a married man when she was 19 and Jerry Long's life long advocacy for civil rights for the LGBQT community. 

These two are quite a pair. Henry, at the tender age of 13, is an honest-to-goodness political activist and writer. Valley is an extraordinary writer, teacher, and community builder. We talk about school protests, Thomas Payne, Roxane Gay, and starting out in the writing game.

Thank you to the amazing Valley Haggard, founder of Life in 10 Minutes, for welcoming ReStory into the family! On Thursday, March 22 these seven incredible individuals shared their stories.
