There's Always This Year, out 3/26/24. I am so proud of this book, and I feel very lucky that I got to write it. It would mean a lot to me if you would preorder it and also share it with folks who might be into it. Gratitude, always.

So excited to see this out in the world! Congrats to @megpillow and this amazing cohort, including @ng_rosenzweig ! Getting to work with Meg last year was one of the best things that happened to me and I can't wait to see how Craft Year unfolds.

The storytelling continues. The medium is ever evolving.

My memoir, The Upcycled Self, is live for preorders and releases on November 14th.

I’m so proud of this work. It’s been years in the making. A close look at my childhood…the era that made me.

@megpillow @dear_mik @_mis_behave It was an incredible workshop and I loved getting to see you! 💕

[Elspeth Michaels @ElspethMichaels]

I had the wonderful honor of working with Meg this past year and she is such a fantastic and supportive editor. What a generous offering—apply for Craft Year!

Wu-Tang forever…or at least until 2103? Only 1 album of Once Upon a Time in Shaolin exists and Wu-Tang auctioned it off in 2015. Only after 88 years post-sale can the owner release it. Where is it now? What gets lost and gained when art is a time capsule? https://t.co/ZI0ui37AeN
