@annie_hartnett thank you for drawing me a lovely barred owl as well! (Please excuse the shadow on my kitchen counter.)
If you haven’t already, check out Annie Hartnett’s Unlikely Animals. You’ll be glad you did!
#UnlikelyAnimals is a tragicomic novel about familial expectations, imperfect friendships, and the possibility of resurrection. @the_rumpus commends @annie_hartnett for "landing an astonishing leap," adding another hard-hitting author to the longlist of the #JoyceCarolOatesPrize

Thank you @JewishBoston and @JBoltonFasman for reminding us how important it is to make effective amends - this season of the High Holidays and always.
Clinical psychiatrist @howes_molly walks us through her apology model’s four steps and why saying “I’m sorry” does not always jumpstart an effective apology.

Very excited about this. Working with Andrew and Sofia has been a dream.
Directed by out filmmaker Andrew Durham, the film is based on Alysia Abbott’s memoir of growing up with her #bisexual father in the 70s and 80s. #SofiaCoppola #Fairyland @AlysiaAbbott #LGBTQ lgbtq.to/3dL7syp

In middle school, my best friend and I wrote the names of all the people we ever had crushes on on the wall in their closet. Their parents are selling the house. To someone we went to middle school with.

I've a new piece about the value of public pools for kids with #Autism and other disabilities. The radio spot will run week. #summer #swimming #memoir
Something profound happens here at the public pool, with all its vivid life on display, writes @AlysiaAbbott.
It's a richness that makes space for all sorts of differences, including my son's.

When I tell you I screamed, I mean I SCREAMED. What an honor after spending the first 9 months of the pandemic writing & rewriting this thing, putting my stuck-ness & grief to the page. What an honor that @alexanderchee was the one to choose it & @Harvard_Review to publish it. ❤️
