Hmm… enjoy it? :-) I loved copy edits because they felt so straightforward after all the deeper problem-solving of earlier revisions. The sense of how far I’d come & how close the finish line was… Congratulations Eshani!

Hello!! I must confess I love the vibe here (…so far! It’s early, ha)

MY FATHER IS A BOOK, Janna Malamud Smith’s biography of her father Bernard Malamud. Read it a decade ago but it still stands out in my mind for its depth & nuance, and the challenge of the task the author set for herself.

Also CONGRATULATIONS 🤩 I love your work & I’m psyched for book 3!

Unpopular opinion (maybe?)—I think it’s helpful to readers when authors post about their books ongoing & not just once. Sometimes the 1st time I see a pre-order link, some other chaos is happening & I forget to actually click through. I need that 7th reminder that a cool new book exists

This was riveting ✨

This was excellent. Thank you for sharing

Thank you for the rec! Exactly the kind of thing I’m looking for right now. Just ordered from Bookshop

Simultaneously starry-eyed about that prospect AND feeling I should not selfishly keep the idea to myself when there are so many brilliant Weil experts/devotees out there? I’m going to repost (but I’m also going to email you 😆)

This is an inspired idea (the #EditorsWishlist, I mean… but also, come to think of it, this potential Simone Weil essay, hovering like a spirit waiting for a body)
