I did not think anything could top Looming Tower, but I enjoyed October in an entirely different way. I'm so enthralled by your reporting and this novel's ability to blend research and fiction. You're the paragon of journalism and an inspiration. Cheers.
@lawrence_wright Mr. Wright, I'm writing to express my awe over your latest book. You've been my favorite author for many years. I looked forward to The End of October with great anticipation and I read it in two sittings. It was brilliant. Absolutely blew me away. Thank you.
I'm pleasantly surprised and grateful for the tidal wave of responses and connections after my latest campus lecture visit. Here is the video of the "main" speech, if you'd like to watch.

This is Alex Tizon's incredible story for the Atlantic, which I mentioned to many of you. I encourage you to read it and see it as an example of vulnerability. #MPATUO https://t.co/9zCj3weCsz
I trade my story for their stories. I come into the auditorium a stranger to all of them, and I leave feeling a true connection with hundreds of new friends. What a gift to have thisโฆ https://t.co/jiQevtU2br
For all the students who got my contact info: youโre all welcome to reach out to me for whatever reason, whenever you need. Donโt be nervous. We all need someone. Find me on LinkedIn, IG, TW, FB and we can email, text or call. Thanks for sharing your beautiful stories. #MPATUO
Watch these moments closely. Theyโre beautiful...
For an hour I dance around in front 400+ students, spilling my emotional innards and cracking jokes with the central theme thatโฆ https://t.co/NK6cGkTmLx
Also partook in the Confidence cohort and saw students open themselves up in courageous ways. Incredible class being taught! Had about 150 conversations outside the classrooms with students, had lunch with 2 persistent ones and shared a beer, coffee and tears with others @UOsojc
Amazing 24 hours in Eugene. Got to connect with the @allenhallad students and chat about emotions. Then got incredibly vulnerable with J100 #MPATUO Had nearly 100 students stay after the lecture for hugs and tears. Meeting each of you fills my heart so full.
