Thank you again to 💐 Maurice 💐, @laughingyeti, and the Wigleaf Top 50 team! It's such an honor for "We Americans," published by Flash Frog, to receive this recognition on the longlist 😍

Congrats to Reema!! 🐸💙🎉

Any mama writers done a residency while babies were young? I was accepted to one (applied not thinking I would be) and feeling horrible ways about “bad mom” but also don’t want to regret not taking this. I’ve been desperate for writing time since my son was born a year ago 😩

I'm doing it!!!!

anyone hear back from the elizabeth george grant?

I will be at Tin House this Autumnnnnnnnn!! Anyone else?!

I'm headed to Storyknife writers' residency next weekend (!!). I've got a few materials for inspo. Does anyone have any other recs for books, online pieces, etc. that you found really inspiring or helpful?! #WritingCommunity

👏🏽

This feels wild, unreal, and so humbling all at once 😱 Every time I think "maybe not the right time" or "maybe not for me," amazing angels keep me writing. Thank you Blue Stoop and Jennifer Weiner!
