@JesseGoolsby @Stanford Thank you so much!!!! It’s crazy to think back to little 19-year-old Ashley in your contemporary lit class! Thank you for the role you played in getting me here!!!

With all the horror and bad news right now in the world, it’s a particularly sweet and surprising joy when something wonderful happens. Last week, I got a phone call that I’d been accepted as a Stegner Fellow at @Stanford. I am truly just wrecked with gratitude.
