And I saw you twice but both times you were surrounded by people wanting to talk about your books! :) :) :) I will try to say hi at the next AWP.

I got one too. It was a nice one but still a rejection. I joked with friends that I was going to go to their booth and stare intensely at them (I would absolutely never do that).

Tired and slightly sore from AWP. And I have Blondie’s “Denis” stuck in my head.

Yesterday was my first AWP panel. It was packed. People were standing against the walls and sitting on the floor. To share space with such amazing writers and an active audience while speaking the truth about the beauty and strife of my hometown and region was a spiritual experience, an awakening.

Sorry I didn’t make it! I hope you had a fantastic AWP!

Meta glasses are human workers in Kenya.
Waymo is human workers in the Philippines and Door Dashers. Amazon Fresh scanner is human workers in India.

They're stealing all our intellectual property and clean drinking water and still failing.

I was super social in the book fair. Now I’m drinking water in my hotel room.

When I was in high school, my AP history teacher talked about having orgasms with his wife. When I complained on him, I was removed from AP history.

You all need to be an opposition party. Stop discussing and start doing.

I don't care if Congress authorizes War on Iran. NO WAR ON IRAN. I want people to fucking reclaim their morality.

Stop debating. Do something. The dems just keep letting him do whatever he wants.

The majority gives in and then tells us, “It’s inevitable.” I’m so sick of higher-ed just giving in to AI. To fascism.

Imagine a world in which people could hold in their brains simultaneously that the guy running Iran was bad and the people running the US and illegally starting a war with Iran in the dead of night are also bad.
