Literary Citizen is here! In the first issue, I write about what happens when fictional situations get uncomfortably close to reality (h/t @MargaretAtwood) and why you should let me send you an email every Friday. Please subscribe and share at angelakboyd.substack.com:

THRILLED for @AriaAber's novel (and more poems!) to be in the world!

At Literary Citizen, we're big fans of Charles Baxter and Stacey D'Erasmo. Read @gimmeshetler's latest on holding charismatic characters - ahem - accountable: angelakboyd.substack.com/p/adjudicating…

@drewpcoles Thank you for reading! This book was 🤯 in the best way

Good stuff from @AngelaKBoyd, I recently finished Copperhead and have been thinking about this topic ever since. open.substack.com/pub/angelakboy…

This week in Literary Citizen, we’re thinking about how - and to what end - novels and poetry bear witness to historical events. #DemonCopperhead is a truly great read, 10/10 recommend, but @oprahsbookclub already told you that! open.substack.com/pub/angelakboy…

@ellewagner @Delta @AskAmex Nope! Not a word from either Delta or AMEX. Super frustrating.

@AngelaKBoyd @Delta @AskAmex Hi Angela! Did you hear back about this? We have similar health related issues that have kept my parents from traveling and are disgusted with CS so far. Thanks!

Hi @Delta & @AskAmex, loyal customer here! I called to extend companion passes expiring 1/23 but was told no. I had a baby 2/21 and haven't been able to travel with her as she wasn't vaccinated until 8/22 and can't yet wear a mask. For us Covid persists. Can you help please?
