Corporate work can already feel like bullshit sometimes. So when work feels both meaningless AND unstable, it shouldn't be surprising when everyone is doing their side hustle on the job. The feeling is, “you’re gonna lay me off anyway, sooo"

Lately I’ve been trying to embrace a stoic “your choice” approach to teen naïveté/foolishness. I’ll offer advice once, and if they push back with naïveté/foolishness, I say “your choice” and not try to convince them

On Monday, February 3rd at 6pm, I’ll sit with a few authors at the Starvos Niarchos Foundation Library to talk about writing, publishing, and building a career. I can’t wait to hang out at the library and look forward to seeing some of you there

TL;DR summary: I’ll be with some great people at the New York Public Library on Monday to talk about writing, publishing, and building a career. It’s free(!), but it might be at capacity, so DM or text me if you’re interested and I’ll smuggle you in

It’s my birthday! My birthday wish is for you to take a moment to share a warm thought or wish me a happy birthday. You can also just do it in your head, I trust you. Here’s me in an astronaut suit.
