My God, I just got the #AWP24 welcome to Friday email, and wtf do you mean that was only a single day

just accomplished a task that had been staring accusingly at me from my to-do list for about 5 years. It took maybe 10 minutes. Was it enormously satisfying to take that line item off my to-do list?, yes. Will I learn anything from this?, never

“I mythologized your face within
my memory’s broken wing. I didn’t
remember 
until someone caroled, Grief,
from their black cave”

Hi friends, never on here anymore but if you’re at #AWP2024 here’s where you’ll find me! Would love to say hello 💚

Thank you Yolimari Rosa for this interview. I always appreciate support from @PBspree The Writers' Grotto 12 x 12 Challenge -- And #agents - Yolimari is a talent!

Looking forward to seeing folks IRL at #AWP24 . Thanks to Jessica Johnson and A.H. Kim for planning these events & convincing me to emerge from hibernation

Coming to AWP this year thanks to the thoughtfulness of Torsa Ghosal | @torsa.bsky.social who invited me to be on this panel. And Jessica Johnson for dreaming up this firecracker of an offsite theme!

Folks, this is not a drill. I know 2 people who’ve had to cancel their AWP plans due to sickness. We have to wear masks again!!!

How cool! Congrats Alex Carrigan!

So very grateful for this Letter From the Editor by Arielle Angel at Jewish Currents and for the friends who introduced me to it. Stunning writing on its own, but especially in a moment of crisis, profound grief, and reckoning.

It's only our culture of commodification that tells you you have to be only one thing. That's not real life. Write, sing, dance, paint, solve equations, philosophize, rest, play, change, go where you have to go.

Is so refreshing & necessary to see an article that states the truth about Taiwan: it is ALREADY INDEPENDENT & the US & everyone else should stop twisting themselves into knots to avoid upsetting China. We’ve put up w/PRC gaslighting for far too long!!!!! tinyurl.com/yc63zfmt
