Love to see both Ream Shukairy and @shannoncfrogers on this list!!

Al Jazeera asked displaced Palestinian children about their hopes for the new year. I wanted to share their responses here:

It’s not normal to see dead children on my timeline all f*cking day. It’s literally non-stop. It’s soul crushing. I am getting more frustrated with each passing moment. It’s making me so angry. I’m pissed I can’t do more. May Allah grant patience to all those who are oppressed.

This is not a war. This is a genocide. Post about Palestine like your life depends on it, because their lives depends on it. Don't stop talking about Gaza. Push for a permanent ceasefire.

Editors/Agents/Writers - if you'll be in Kansas City this year for #AWP24, please reach out! I'd love to see you while I'm there!

…Aaand that’s a wrap on #AWP24! Literally needed to lay down. Until next year when we do it all over again!
