Welcome to Nora's,
the blog inspired by the life and work of the American
journalist, essayist, playwright, screenwriter, novelist, producer, and
director, Nora Ephron.
Nora's willingness for reinvention is a beautiful trait. She is often quoted speaking on her move into a new, slightly different career ever ten years. She is brave, fierce, strong. She is confident in her ability, unafraid of change. She is an inspiration.

Over the past three weeks, I've been been contemplating the meaning of inspiration. What does it mean? Is it a person of influence, importance? Are they the same? I've come to some conclusions.
1. Anyone can be an inspiration.
- Authenticity is key. If you love something and speak authentically, passionately about it, people will respect you for it. Whether you are inspired by your mom, your dog, or J.K. Rowling, speak to it, for it. It's important.
2. There are no bounds to inspiration.
- You can be inspired by anything, everything. Do not limit yourself to one person. There is so much beauty in this world; go find it.
3. Create a life worth inspiring.
- If anyone can be an inspiration, why can't you?
With this mind, I have created a blog based on the inspirations of my inspiration. With the cyclicality of this process in mind, I hope to discover a little bit more about what I love from what Nora does.
I hope you enjoy reading, as much as I have enjoyed creating.
Love,
M
