I love transparency like this (we’re not owed it) because it highlights how episodic life is. It’s not this linear straight, perfectly formed line, rather a series of seasons, peaks and troughs, spins, dives, and lulls. It’s antithetical to what we’re taught in fairytales and wider media. And that’s just fine.

I don't have a big budget but would love to connect with former WaPo Arts looking to pick up commissions here and there. Hit me up [email protected] and I'll let you know what kinds of pitches we're looking for.

Picked up my notebook this morning — full of notes from a recent reporting trip — and got hit with another wave of grief over all the stories that now won't be told. I'm looking for work, preferably in Kyiv, should anyone need a dogged, empathetic reporter. DM/email.

With the recent layoffs at The Washington Post & The AJC. I wanted to recirculate an entry I wrote about journalism changing and how journalists are forced into a new creator system we didn’t ask to be in.
