I can’t watch #EverythingEverywhereAllAtOnce without sobbing. 😭 It’s a movie that makes me feel seen. It’s also a movie that reminds me of my mother. When she visited me in Seattle, I made my mom watch the movie twice. My essay: seattletimes.com/entertainment/…

10 years ago today, I was working a weekend shift @seattletimes when word came in of a landslide near a small town named Oso. It turned out to be the deadliest landslide in U.S. history. It also became an exhibit for why local journalism matters in a time of crisis. 1/

Why is flying so miserable and expensive? Q&A with @GaneshSitaraman on new @ColumbiaGR book "Why Flying Is Miserable: And How to Fix It" seattletimes.com/entertainment/…

The death of George Floyd and a rise in Asian American hate crimes in 2020 changed how author Curtis Chin shaped his memoir about growing up in Detroit in the '80s. Here's what he shared with us about his writing process, coming out and his new book. st.news/40aRi5G

Curtis Chin on memoir: "I want people to pick up the book thinking that they’re going to learn about an Asian American family, but they’re really learning about America and particularly about America at a very pivotable point in our country's history." seattletimes.com/entertainment/…

Upcoming @ubookstoresea and @UWTInvolvement events next week: @Curtischin on "Everything I Learned, I Learned in a Chinese Restaurant." I had the privilege to catch up with @aaww's co-founder on his memoir, writing process and more. Our interview: seattletimes.com/entertainment/…

@pgcornwell 💔 I’m so sorry for your loss, Paige. Thank you for being you and keeping your mom’s memory and spirit alive.

My mom died last week. She was my biggest fan and the light of my life. She was a staunch believer in the power of news. So much so that we included this in her obit: “In lieu of monetary contributions, we ask that you hug your loved ones and subscribe to a local newspaper.”

For anyone who needs an airbag right now from depressing news: Here’s a list of writing and book recommendations to suit any mood (including joy) seattletimes.com/entertainment/…

Etgar Keret: “Writing functions like an airbag in the car.” Thank you for facilitating this beautiful interview, @arishapiro npr.org/2023/10/19/120…
