This four generations picture came up in my memories yesterday. Still one of my very favorites, much more so than if we were posed and smiling. This was 2018—we lost Grandma Wanda the following year.

You really need to read this book. It’s so good. Like, crazy good. And funny. See below for example. Also stay tuned for something fun related to Janelle Bassett.

My book launch at Left Bank Books is tomorrow! I'll be in conversation with my pal Jasmine Sawers and the neckline of my dress will be held together with fashion tape. Exciting stuff! left-bank.com/event/janelle-…
