I can’t stop thinking about this heartbreakingly beautiful piece by @jared_misner about friendship and loss. It is a reminder that behind each #COVID19 statistic is a story, a life and those they left behind are now in mourning. 💔 #Coronavirustruth nytimes.com/2020/10/09/sty…

@michaelngraff I’ve been thinking long and hard on how to respond to someone like you who I have (and continue to) look up to as a writer. So I’m just going to say thank you for taking a chance on me. I’m grateful.

Here's @jared_misner, figuring it out by writing it down. What an essay. What a writer. What a relationship. Give it a read. nytimes.com/2020/10/09/sty…
