Literary Citizen is here! In the first issue, I write about what happens when fictional situations get uncomfortably close to reality (h/t @MargaretAtwood) and why you should let me send you an email every Friday. Please subscribe and share at https://t.co/Io2dIOTTrk:

THRILLED for @AriaAber's novel (and more poems!) to be in the world!

At Literary Citizen, we're big fans of Charles Baxter and Stacey D'Erasmo. Read @gimmeshetler's latest on holding charismatic characters - ahem - accountable: https://t.co/q6WMgMPD4u

@drewpcoles Thank you for reading! This book was 🤯 in the best way

[Angela Boyd @AngelaKBoyd]

This week in Literary Citizen, we’re thinking about how - and to what end - novels and poetry bear witness to historical events. #DemonCopperhead is a truly great read, 10/10 recommend, but @oprahsbookclub already told you that!

So proud to share Literary Citizen editor @gimmeshetler's first post (and comic!): Moving Forward in an Age of Grief #griefjourney #griefandloss https://t.co/ksuxSAbKMv

@ellewagner @Delta @AskAmex Nope! Not a word from either Delta or AMEX. Super frustrating.

[Angela Boyd @AngelaKBoyd]

Hi @Delta & @AskAmex, loyal customer here! I called to extend companion passes expiring 1/23 but was told no. I had a baby 2/21 and haven't been able to travel with her as she wasn't vaccinated until 8/22 and can't yet wear a mask. For us Covid persists. Can you help please?

One of my closest friends lost his wife unexpectedly the day after Christmas. She was 40 years old. Money is tight. Please consider donating to her funeral expenses; every bit helps. https://t.co/DVfuQnIR46

In the most recent Literary Citizen we asked National Climate Assessment director @allisoncrimmins what she’s reading… and my husband immediately put it on his Christmas list 🤣 thanks Allison for the gift idea! More at https://t.co/tLohMrVTT8
