Jenny B and Rami Younis, 100% genius. His film AYD, a documentary/science fiction story about the Nakba, premieres in NYC tonight. “It is not often you meet someone who is both a good writer and a good friend.” Rami is both.

I am spending this day with my friend Rami Younis, Palestinian filmmaker, whose new movie, LYD, opens at the firehouse theatre in NYC tonight. It is both a documentary & a fantasy, about the current world, and another in which the nakba never occurred. youtu.be/EIWH0lH1BkM?si…
An author's prayer: May I never be famous May I never be the subject of discourse. Free those who love me from debates with those who do not. Let me remain a cutie on the sidelines. Let my deals always be "nice."
Stand back, Homer's Odyssey. My Martini tour of New York begins now. Featuring a cast of millions! Well, mostly @j_smithcameron, @amortowles and @plattypants newyorker.com/culture/annals…
A few photos of the fabulous prepublication party for Colm Tóibín's new novel, LONG ISLAND. Sean Kelly hosted, in a glorious chamber high above Hudson Yards. The event benefitted @PENamerica. We spoke of Joyce, and Thomas Mann, and the burdens of plot. ON WITH THE STORY!
With others, I salute #HelenVendler, her rare mind for poetry, esp. #JohnAshbery, & her good heart. I have story or two, but nothing to match this, from #RitaDove:
"Ivy League institutions have attracted the most attention for outbursts of Jew hatred even as scores of civilian hostages from Israel are subject to torture,rape, &brutal isolation. But rejecting the vicious tactics of the war in Gaza, doesn’t make one a supporter of terrorists"
"Ivy League institutions have attracted the most attention for outbursts of Jew hatred even as scores of civilian hostages from Israel are subject to torture,rape, &brutal isolation. But rejecting the vicious tactics of the war in Gaza, doesn’t make one a supporter of terrorists"

It’s been awhile since I posted poems here—very busy semester!—but I think we could all use one. This poem by @akasomeguy speaks to the ways we are dependent on language for mutual understanding ( . . . uh oh . . .). 🫤✊🏽💜 poems.com/poem/race-in-l…
Percival Everett's JAMES is one of the best books I’ve read in years. Full stop. nytimes.com/2024/03/11/boo…
Knife by @SalmanRushdie is a true miracle. Yes, it describes in painful detail the horror of what happened, but it’s also a mediation on happiness and love. Surviving the attack took strength, but this kind of writing takes wisdom.
The $75,000 prize accompanying the PEN/Stein award will be donated, this year, to the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund at the direction of the Literary Estate of Jean Stein. @PENamerica publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/in…

Our greatest musical satirist, without question.
Happy Birthday to one of my all time favorites, the hilarious Tom Lehrer who was born 96 years ago today.
Today was my first day as an editor at Alloy Entertainment! I'm thrilled to be back to my commercial fiction roots, and I can't wait to develop books readers will love with such a talented team of storytellers. Agents and authors, let's chat! 🥳📚
So apt for these polarized days ❤️
(I very much hope that no writers feel pressured to pull out; this is a lifelong dream for so many who have fought untold battles to get their voices heard.)
I knew at age 6 or 7 that I was trans but stayed in the closet for many years. Coming out and being my true self was the best thing I ever did. I’ve legally, socially, and medically transitioned. #ProtectTransKids P.S. that's me on the right with our eldest, having the craic
