Thank you so much for writing this and for including a mention.

@emilyfmaloney what happened?

[Gail Konop @gailkonop]

@lillydancyger @Narratively When I was feeling small nearly invisible--after my mother attempted suicide and my brother's nervous breakdown--I dropped out of college and got a job at big and tall men's shop. I was/am also literally small and had to climb on stools to measure chest size and tie ties.

"the process requires maximal obedience"
yes and ugh.

I apologize for posting screenshots of my own book but they seem possibly relevant to recent events

[Gail Konop @gailkonop]

I have felt out of step with my (some) of my peers when my first book was published at 48 and I became a yoga teacher at 54 and opened a yoga studio at 56 and have zero plans to stop teaching yoga and/or writing.

@emilyfmaloney @MacDowellColony only possible roadblock is that I have two other writing deadlines on the 16th. Might have to wait until next cycle.

[Gail Konop @gailkonop]

@emilyfmaloney @MacDowellColony I've always wanted to apply. Maybe this is the year.

I'm welcoming the 'positivity' around #menopause

@behindthewoman1 Lol. I meant retweeting.

[Gail Konop @gailkonop]

@JamesTateHill @LukeWortley No. I'm Franzen.

[Gail Konop @gailkonop]

The column will be like Dan Savage crossed with early Sex in the City (updated for 2019) with the wisdom of experts like Esther Perel and Regina Thomashauer. It is as much about tapping into sensuality and empowerment as sex (or how and where the two intersect).
ask me anything!

[Gail Konop @gailkonop]

Ask me anything!!
I will be writing a monthly online sex column (first one comes out in September!!) for women aging boldly (interpret however that resonates with you) and I am seeking letters from YOU!
These will be anonymous or signed with a pseudonym... so be bold!!
