Quote of the Week:
“We are all migrants through time.” –Mohsin Hamid, Exit West
What I’m reading:
The Uninhabitable Earth: Life After Warming by David Wallace-Wells (truly, truly terrifying)
What I’m listening to:
Pachinko by Min Jin Lee (finished this week)
Exit West by Mohsin Hamid
What I’m watching:
“Love Life” (HBO Max) — still enjoying this one
Writing news:
- My website redesign is LIVE!
- Just a couple weeks until All the Acorns on the Forest Floor comes out
- All the Love: Healing Your Heart and Finding Meaning After Pregnancy Loss will be out on March 23. Follow us @allthelovetalk on Twitter and Instagram
- I just started working on edits for novel #5–it releases next summer. Details coming soon!
What I’m talking about:
- The terrifying reality of climate change (reading The Uninhabitable Earth is blowing my mind and scaring the shit out of me; you can get a taste of it by reading this New York magazine article by the same author)
- The shooting of Jacob Blake (WSJ article here). I do not understand how these killings keep happening. It’s abhorrent
- The American Medical Association’s recommendation that meat and diary be listed as optional in the next iteration of official dietary guidelines (Forks and Knives)
What I’m grateful for:
I got this print for my office a while ago and it’s been making me smile. I’ve been demoralized by a few bastards lately (maybe the fact that several planets are in retrograde is to blame?). Life is too short to feel demoralized by bastards.

Looking forward to reading all the acorns on the forest floor! I loved People Who Knew Me and Tiny.
