I subscribe to New York Magazine because I don't want to miss anything written by Kerry Howley. This piece is devastating and a must-read.

Reminder that I'm working on a book of nonfiction about Janet's music and am always curious to know when and where her songs appear in public spaces. If you catch one of her jams somewhere please do not hesitate to notify me of details. which track, where you heard it, did everyone dance, etc

I wrote about my brief unlikely local politics interlude for @thecut.com. Written with love for Portland & loathing for the genocidal clowns who made national politics so alienating. If you have an amazing friend maybe you can accidentally be her campaign manager too. www.thecut.com/article/how-...

Manage a Political Campaign Just to Feel Something Again

National politics made me despair. Then my friend ran for office, and I unleashed my inner political animal.

"Your own evaluation of your work day is not usually a good sign of how good a job you did." - @mdbell79.bsky.social on the Creative Nonfiction Podcast. I really like the idea of forgetting about Good writing days and Bad writing days. I won't even know which kind it was until way later anyway!
