“She wasn’t doing a thing that I could see, except standing there leaning on the balcony railing, holding the universe together.“
- A Girl I Knew by J.D. Salinger

Today and every day, wishing you all a love that changes the way you see the world.

(And much respect to all you bookstagrammers and your book hearts—this pathetic demonstration of spatial relations took me like an HOUR to figure out. But thank you @harperbooks for trying to help by dropping the right color bound galleys of FRIENDS LIKE THESE on my doorstep yesterday!)

Playing hooky. Illegally signing books. You still love me, right @strandbookstore? (If you’re in the market for a first edition RECONSTRUCTING AMELIA with a seriously sketchy signature it’s there for the taking.)

New beginnings. Three parts blinding terror. One part infinite possibility.

(I save all pennies I find (heads-up) on the street. This is like six years worth. Hey, life is complicated—I’ll take all the luck I can get.)

(I have no excuse for the gum.)

Fourteen months after facing the dreaded blank page FRIENDS LIKE THESE is officially off to copyedits! Thank you @billysbakerynyc for being there to help me celebrate. Luckily there will always be carbohydrates—not that I’m going to eat three. I bought way more. There are also WAY more drafts. I never did excel at moderation. Endless thanks @barth.jennifer and @authorrep for getting me all the way there.

Coming September 7, 2021.

@brianmccreight a supremely talented visual artist and storyteller has just launched a new, limited edition book of photography: SO LONG NOW. It’s gorgeous and insightful and visionary—link to purchase in my bio. Also PLEASE follow @brianmccreight on IG, ‘cause he’s my older brother and he’s only here because I told him he had to be. And under no circumstances can I be proven wrong.

New Year’s Resolution: It’s only the art that matters. Here’s to a far better 2021. Wishing you all a year filled with wild love and divine inspiration.

Missing today the people I can’t see in this insane lockdown world. But feeling very lucky to know that they are out there. And that there will be time—next year and the year after that and forever and always. That life can and will go on, despite this sudden stillness. Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to all who celebrate. Hold tight and stay safe everyone. We are almost through. ❤️

“It is a serious thing

Just to be alive

On this fresh morning

In the broken world.” Mary Oliver

Headed to @brooklynwriters. Feels like 7 degrees. Still snowing. Hey, @harperbooks there’s some kind of extra credit here, right? I mean, I’d take like a gold star…something, anything?
