"I’d convinced myself that I would be perfectly happy heading towards the rest of my life by myself, which is what you’re supposed to tell yourself if you haven’t loved anyone in a while."

@RachelSalvini's story, "Unremarkable": "Giorgio called me the morning of June 23, 2016. I had been in London for a month, and Brexit debates were all over the news. People couldn’t stop wondering if Britain was actually going to leave the EU." #fiction

@IllustrR made this wonderful illustration for “Il Bimbo Alligatore,” my short story that won the Italian @8x8_oblique contest!! This is so beautiful. Such talent!
I’m reading “My Private Lennon” by @sibbieosullivan for my creative nonfiction comprehensive exam and it’s blowing my mind. This book is not just about the Fab Four. It’s a fresh, tender, feminist take on women writing about music and listening to rock ‘n’ roll.
thanks to @RachelSalvini for translating my essay "Things Sad People Shouldn't Have" from @pankmagazine into Italian! I can't read Italian but I'm loving comparing rhythms of the original and translation.

Dear #AWP20, the conference is on. We just got off the phone with the mayor. We took a long time to deliberate because this is so important to our community. A full statement will be posted on our website now that the decision has been made.
She was married when we first met
Soon to be divorced
I helped her out of a jam, I guess
But I used a little too much force
We drove that car as far as we could
Abandoned it out West
Split up on a dark sad night... https://t.co/HbJCCFJwaI
