I sold my short story collection! Couldn’t be happier to be working with Allie Merola and the team at Viking, I feel like I found my dream home. Thanks to my wise and tenacious agent Bill Clegg for everything.

Earlier this year, Sarah Chihaya was diagnosed with MSA—a terminal neurodegenerative disease. Right now, she can no longer read or write—this will be her last piece. And it's a brilliant one about Emily Brontë and unknowability. https://t.co/BHfV6MdUNL

I like how this shows the *emptiness* of the type of book that mostly serves as an ad campaign for the brilliance of the MC. It’s not just that the posturing is annoying! It’s that there’s often nothing else there. You can be annoying if you back it up! https://t.co/m1F4ZfRJqu

[The New Yorker @NewYorker]

“The Vivisectors,” by Missouri Williams, critiques the hollowness of contemporary life. But it’s tricky to gauge the book’s level of self-awareness. https://t.co/U2z1s6KhnN

"I needed to read it to stay upright during the day and to stay lying down at night." Sarah Chihaya on reading Anne Carson's "The Glass Essay" every day for a month after a breakup. https://t.co/7uzVtoQTda

If I can be earnest, there are few people writing today whose work I love as much as Hannah's. As someone who edited her, I found her style pleasingly, beautifully distinctive, full of flourishes and surprises—no one's doing it quite like her. I can't wait to read these stories

@MatthewSitman I love earnest Matt
