Reviews Too Good to Be Altogether Lost Review in The Wall Street Journal: "Ms. Hill not only discusses the woman’s life, artistry and place in American literature. She also solves a literary mystery that has long bedeviled Wilder’s legacy—and millions of her readers." If I Can Get Home This Fall Starred Review in Library Journal: "The subject is compelling and valuable, especially for readers interested in American history, the Civil War, or personal stories of courage and resilience."

✨book update✨ I won an IPPY, which means I am equally parts humbled, shocked, and so excited that I will finally have a real-life gold medal I can wear nonchalantly in the privacy of my home. Forever grateful to @univnebpress.bsky.social and @court8961.bsky.social for making this book a reality.

Reviews Baseball Review in Journal of Sport History: "It is rare to find a book that condenses hundreds of scholarly monographs and journal articles, adds a few new or underutilized primary sources, and tells a familiar story with a level of specificity that makes it feel just a little new. Steven Gietschier’s Baseball: The Turbulent Midcentury Years is that kind of book."

"I realized that the biggest overarching theme was ontology . . . I think foundationally, that’s what all writers are trying to figure out," writes @baileygaylinmoore.bsky.social, author of THANK YOU FOR STAYING WITH ME in an interview with @thesunlightpress.bsky.social.

A Conversation with Bailey Gaylin Moore - The Sunlight Press
For someone to slow down and read your book and to feel a connection with you, it's kind of ineffable how that makes you feel. It's overwhelming and it's super humbling.

My upcoming collection has a section navigating how to mourn a nation, written between 2016-2020. After Biden took office, I worried these essays had become dated and struggled with whether I should include them in the book. Unfortunately, my biggest fear happened: the essays became relevant again.

“Me, I sit up preparing interview questions for long-gone rock-and-rollers, the upward curves of these sentences forming my shrine.” Damn, go read the newest issue of Memoir Mixtapes, especially this piece by Aarik Danielson, which is. so. good. (Happy Birthday, Aarik!)

"he told you about finding a kitten by the road on his way there, how its legs had been run over, acting it out with his hands, the limp legs" Loved this tiny story, from which I dare not quote too much.
