A true story about a roommate-ship gone awry… I’ve had roommate-ships that soured, but thankfully never like this! Check out Anna DiMartino’s ā€œThe Housemate,ā€ out now from #sneakerwavemag #truestory #roommates #stalkerstory #memoir #personalessay sneakerwavemag.org/p/the-housemate

ā€œWhen your partner gives you a ride to the airport, that’s access intimacy. That’s love.ā€ I love the framing of care (expressed in craft) that appears in rob macaisa colgate šŸ‡µšŸ‡øšŸ‰ā€™s recent interview at #therumpus #writerinterviews #writingcommunity #AuthorInterviews therumpus.net/2025/05/19/rob…

Believing that children in Gaza deserve food to eat is not the same as being pro-Hamas/pro-terror. Condemning the murder of Israeli embassy staff does not mean you hate all Palestinians. This polarized, either/or, black and white thinking is going to be the end of us.

As a book reviewer of great passion and strong opinions, I absolutely loved Cassie Mannes Murray’s deep dive on criticism, particularly the point about specificity in reviews or blurbs. What is a great line or detail you’ve read in a piece of criticism lately? open.substack.com/pub/pinestatep…

I’ve got a new piece up MAYDAY and it’s the first of four essays as part of a critical residency! I’ll be writing about the frictions between the literary world and writing about/wrestling with faith. Thinking about #genesis and #evangelicalism maydaymagazine.com/the-gravel-pat…

A story for anyone who’s ever had a total haircut disaster and lived to tell the tale—for all of us who have struggled to match the verve inside of us to the appearance outside, to find the right way to express our inner ā€˜fuckitall.’ sneakerwavemag.org/p/the-fuckitall

As a student of History and observer of people, a lot of you seem to only view violence in the physical form. That way of thinking is dangerous. It allows you to forget poverty is violence. That denying you healthcare is violence. That polluting your water and air is violence.

This entry in the Farmer’s Almanac implies that Johnson’s impeachment and McKinley’s assassination were both results of their beardlessness

This might be the essay that’s closest to my heart — about church camp, cry night, the doctrine of depravity and religious trauma. I’m so grateful to theChristianCentury for giving it a home! #religioustrauma #churchcamp christiancentury.org/features/dear-…
