See you on May 7 in NYC to raise $ for @WeAreNotNumbers via @PalFest. I'll be joining other authors who've refused @PENamerica award noms & World Voices Festival spots to protest PEN's failure to "stand at the intersection of literature & human rights to protect open expression."
At least 70 authors have now dropped out of @PENamerica events in an unprecedented act of solidarity with Palestinian writers. Today we are announcing an alternative event to mark this collective action, to hear from these authors and from writers from Gaza. Join us at Judson…

Dear friends— thank you for all the congratulatory texts and calls and DMs. For many reasons, I’m very grateful for this season of affirmations, but the best part is sharing it with my dearests. And yes, there are new projects underway that I cannot wait to share with you! ✨
I have a renewed much faith in community. This last week has taught me a lot. I’m really grateful for this moment of clarity. Thank you to everyone who sent a kind word, or uplifted our action, or sent money or food. We do all this together.
