1. She was loyal to Biden to the end. 2. She so decisively crushed Pelosi’s plan for a contested convention. 3. She picked Walz. 4. Her convention was fun, joyous and politically astute. 5. She crushed her acceptance speech. Can we finally admit she’s really good at this?

Adore this writer (her prose! the wit threading through the ache!) and was bowled over to see what she did in the Letter to a Stranger form. 🔥

Launching our new Off Assignment column, "Goodbye to that Place," with this stunner of an essay by Leslie Jamison. Please read: short & oh-so-powerful. Writers, if you have your own narrative farewell to a bygone place--start drafting, we'd love to read it. offassignment.com/gttp/leslie-ja…

"Where I practiced what I'd say to everyone on the first day of junior high. (I love how rain looks falling on water.) Where I learned what junior high was really like. Where I was quiet & angry & turned into myself." An elegy for my childhood home 💔 offassignment.com/gttp/leslie-ja…
