Excited that a project I've been dreaming about (and working on) for a long time was released into the wild: "The Wonder of Stevie," a 6-episode @HGMedia @pineapplemedia @audible_com podcast about Stevie Wonder's run of 5 classic albums in the 1970s.

Announcing my first piece for the publication LA Material. Today: A story about a fascinating, anonymous artist whose canvas is Griffith Park…and subject matter (his project is called “The Hiding Man”) is both hilarious and extremely serious.

Today I’m celebrating the announcement of my new book, THE POWER OF NO, a meditation on what it means when a woman says “no” — professionally, politically, and personally.

[Anna Holmes @AnnaHolmes]

Saying “no” is a lifelong practice, especially for those of us socialized female, where we are expected to always be accommodating and deprioritize our personal agency in service of a “greater” good.

@wordspinster Hi Debbie, I'm looking to get in touch regarding an interview I'd love to do with you for a book I'm researching and writing about women and language. What's the best way to make a formal inquiry? Thanks, and Happy New Year

[Anna Holmes @AnnaHolmes]

Wesley Morris of the @nytimes hosts and interviewees include @questlove @smokeyrobinson @JanelleMonae George Clinton and, of course @BarackObama and @MichelleObama. The @guardian called it "a series to be relished." As you can imagine, I agree.

I’m saddened to hear that @AnnaHolmes smart piece might have been a goodbye to Jezebel itself https://t.co/pwB46xCoYf

I just wrote a piece for @BW about procrastination. As a way of procrastinating writing. 🤦🏻‍♀️

@wordspinster Hi Dr. Cameron. I'm looking to talk with you for a book I'm doing, and wonder if you might follow me back so I can make a formal request. Thanks so much for your time. :)

I haven't been on Twitter very much, for reasons that are both clear and unclear to me. But I want to share my latest for @NewYorker, an essay about my complicated feelings about an upcoming hysterectomy.

Mourning her uterus. Moving essay by ⁦@AnnaHolmes⁩. “I know that I’ll be grieving, too, for a part of me that feels, even now, as I approach menopause, central to who I am and who I’ve been.” https://t.co/pWrdul6InK

@rxgau Hi Robert: I'm looking to get in touch regarding a podcast project I'm working on with my company, Higher Ground, founded by President Obama and Mrs. Obama, and produced by Questlove. Is there a good email for you?
