Laurie and Jeff, incognito at some weird art thing in the desert (ie, that is not my apartment). 🙌

Visiting relatives. Mom apparently mad at dad, who’s taking the picture.

Beloved-loved-loved daughter. (That’s not the real painting. It’s a reproduction for photo purposes because you can’t use cameras upstairs in the museum.)

Congrats @laurienye! I will be there!

Opening tomorrow at Phillip Martin Gallery in LA: Saturday, September 27 from 5-8pm, "This World Only," a solo exhibition of new works by Laurie Nye.

I just want to live here for a little while. Is that okay?

(from "Maisy's Pop-Up Playhouse," by Lucy Cousins)

The hard sell.

The last cover story I edited for Vanity Fair—in which the writer and the subject share something very raw about themselves that I don't think I've ever seen shared in a story before—just landed online. It's about Pedro Pascal, and, to borrow a line from Robert Frost, I think it's lovely, dark, and deep. (To be clear, Robert Frost said that about a forest—he didn't actually read this cover story.) @kvalby wrote the piece. I wish I could post the text that Pedro wrote to her after he read it, but once you read the article I think you'll have a pretty good idea of what he said and how he said it. Karen wrote four of the best, most searching and empathetic covers I edited for VF. I would edit her stuff for free forever.

This was the most fun I've had since Trump took office—the first time. When he was 13, @michaelausiello wrote pretend soap opera scripts. Why? Because he was 13. Forty years later, Michael is presenting them as staged readings at @dynastytypewriter in Los Angeles with great casts— and the shows are hysterical in both senses of the word. If this thing were Off Broadway, it'd run longer than "The Fantasticks." Watch @beverlyhillsfanclub and #beverlyhillsfanclub for the next dates.

Randomly walked by a house Irecognized from the mists of time.

Proud to have been part of the (big) team that made this happen.

I think the word "fearless" is overused by book reviewers, because great writers can be terrified and even doubled over with emotional pain and STILL say what needs to be said. I don't know what state of mind @as_king_ and @misskathleenglasgow are in when they write, but I'm always transfixed by their novels. One's a surrealist (Amy) and one's a realist (Kathleen), but both are basically poets, both are wildly honest—and both are on tour now w/ new novels.
