Well #AWP got off to a great start. First panel (one I really wanted to hear) started with an antisemitic statement... Walked out. The Jewish panel has security in the room.

I was asked to do a reading from my book Your Roots Cast a Shadow, at a synagogue. I couldn't disclose the location and security greeted me at the door. Now I'm realizing it was the first talk where I felt fully comfortable....

This year I've started my own version of the 5 min journal, where I write good inspiring or moving things that happened that day in 5 sentences or less. It brings me an unexpected amount of joy and fulfillment.
