I’ve been thinking about this essay for 4yrs, since Bailey was announced as 🧜🏽‍♀️. 🙏🏼 to @thatelizasmith for sharp edits and Qs that pushed me, & @mirajacob who helped me reconnect with my project/purpose. This is a microcosm of my book-in-progress, of my ❤️ https://t.co/MJklfXCRam

I’m so deeply grateful to @Pangyrus - and especially to @anrielizabeth for giving my Danish musings a home and for her talents as an editor and a human. Also huge thanks to Amanda Lewis, & to @GoldmanWrites for bringing Tove Ditlevsen into my world with his brilliant translation.

@Bookshop_Org Always the FIRST thing I read before starting the book. Am upset when audio books don’t record them (many don’t).

#VibeCheckPod live @WBURCitySpace was EVERYTHING. As was getting my book signed by Saeed before the taping, and Zach commenting on my jumpsuit. Thank you both for your generosity of spirit and for encouraging us all to find our joy. Sam, you were missed. ❤️

@rebeccamakkai Re: Garth, “The River” and “Unanswered Prayers” are my recommendations. And go see him in Vegas if you can, he has a residency right now and his show is *chef’s kiss*

@rche_types This is a revelation. And is a lens through which I am now looking back on so many moments in writing workshops and 🤯🤯🤯. THANK YOU.

@karenbates What an enormous loss for (and terrible decision by) npr. Thank you so much for all your work, it has touched and taught me more than you know. ❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️

[Anri Wheeler / 杏莉 @anrielizabeth]

@AvashiaNeema @rfordham811 Amen to that. I’ve experienced communal care in many places across this country (and beyond). New England has been the hardest when it comes to finding it and I wonder if that it why I am so (mentally) exhausted here.
