@JohnWest Hi!!!! So happy for you

@jmsilves It's so crazy! And hi!

Absolutely surreal to see a review of my book in the wild. Publishers Weekly calls it "searing," "affectingly raw," "often lyrical," and "touching if imperfect." It dwells on those imperfections, but what a gift that someone engaged with my book like this! publishersweekly.com/9780802882493

.@danjmcnamara, whose "Big Short" against shopping malls I wrote about for @esquire, has posted a FY2022 annual return of 8.33% for his new start-up hedge fund, Polpo Capital—a remarkable profit considering that the S&P was down over 18% in 2022!

@blauring Ongoingness!

What’s a good, short book (I have to be able to hold it one-handed) to read while nursing that doesn’t take too much brain power? I could also use my Kindle so maybe it doesn’t have to be that short, just very readable.

@BestBuySupport @BestBuy I placed an online order for a Samsung TV in Nov 2021; original delivery date was Dec 15. That date has been rescheduled no fewer than 6 times now, with no prior notification or explanation for the cancellations. I would like contact info for a manager.

@hannahhoward Ferrante!

I have a student looking for writing about bitterness- the flavor profile or the feeling - any suggestions for her?!

@sean_kennedy131 Brilliant.

@BennMFA_Writing @hannahhoward @LittleABooks @PublishersWkly Happy pub day @hannahhoward! And here’s to your gift for writing life’s most delicious and painful experiences in a way that always makes me taste and feel them right along with you. 🥂

Happy Pub Day to @hannahhoward (MFA '18). Her book, PLENTY: A Memoir of Food and Family, is out @LittleABooks. "Readers will fall in love with Howard’s astute perspective on food, love, and the richness both bring to life."@PublishersWkly starred review. amzn.to/3xtIIPz
