A little late—but what an amazing opportunity to read and hear others read at Verbatim books last Thursday. So impressed by all my fellow grad students and by the headliners Kazim Ali and @mcrane12.bsky.social! What a fun night :)

99% of the time spent writing an essay consists of me looking up synonyms until i find the word i want. i spend the majority of my revision process playing twenty questions with thesaurus.com
