I’ve been thinking for a long time about dead language and what it does for us to use it as well as read and listen to it, so I finally attempted to write about it via Meant For You. The full essay is free and online as usual. Backgrounds were taken from @samdakota by power of Wife’s Law.

I’ve been experimenting with writing on my blog since I think mailing lists are over. (That said, I will be sending out a Meant For You this week or next 😝 My first of the year. And maybe the last, who knows.) The blog feels more intimate and casual to me right now, an inviting combination. I still do my best to write something worth reading…the eternal struggle.

Attention readers, writers, and New Yorkers! Reading Writers will be in conversation with @stephanienjeriwambugu on December 4th at @bookforum’s holiday party. Tickets are free but please make sure to reserve your space if you’ll be coming. We’d love to see you there.

In case you missed it, last week’s episode featured Torrey Peters and is one of my favorite guest interviews ever! We will indeed be releasing a new episode on Wednesday and it’s the perfect antidote to too much family time/travel. (Topics include poison, Italian decadence, perverts, children’s literature, and the plight of indoor kids.) Sneak peek on slide two….

It’s a beautiful day to use the power of hearing to listen to the new Reading Writers, staring @laurenmichelejackson. I also loved terrorizing Jo in this ep with my demented commentary on “the past,” hot cheetahs, etc. As Dale says in one of my favorite video clips of all time (second slide), “I’m checking the book out.”

I’ve been thinking for months about what it means to write or pursue other types of artistic expression at this moment, and the latest Meant For You is an attempt to tease out the many fears and insecurities that get collapsed into a single anxiety: that creation itself is wrong. This is just a tiny bit of the essay! Free to read in full as always 🧡

It’s An Honest Woman’s one year anniversary! Which means you can finally own a hardcover AND a paperback. Naturally I shared my sales numbers and wrote about the publication process in my latest. But you should skip my section and scroll to the contributions of ten (!) other writers who were generous enough to answer my ask about whether or not releasing a book gets easier. The consensus is no, but also yes.

Thank you to everyone who has ever done anything nice for my books or for me, or who has done anything nice for anyone, period. Where would we be without you ❤️

My latest Meant For You is about how we might ask more of ourselves, to stop using emotion in lieu of action and to have more faith in others. As always you can read it in full and for free. This artwork is by Jacob Lawrence, titled: “Men exist for the sake of one another. Teach them then or bear with them.” – Marcus Aurelius Antoninus, Meditations, VIII:59. From the series Great Ideas of Western Man.

I tried so hard to write something useful about perspective, hopelessness, and content consumption in the latest Meant For You. There will be a fun and completely different letter coming later this month so keep your 👀 peeled.
