Thank you!!!

It's my favorite city! In 2032, I'll consider moving there.

Thank you. So are you! Shit it might be someone you know, they post a good bit about Chicago and other things you'd know about. Probably been in the wild frfr with this person.

2. If I'm not a journalist, we better alert all the newspapers, magazines and websites for whom I've written! And oh my gosh I'd better let a real journalist take over the nonprofit weekly newspaper I founded too.

3. Ya maw, heaux.

1. However, if "most people that [sic] know" me "absolutely can't stand" me, well that's news to me. Also I don't care if anyone likes me. I'm an only child and grandchild who had no family left by 17. I'm good, love.

Would love to break into Travel + Leisure, Forbes, National Geographic, ELLE, Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, GQ, Food & Wine, TIME, Los Angeles Times, AARP, The Atlantic, Cosmopolitan, Oprah Daily, Smithsonian, Allure, The New Yorker, Condé Nast Traveler, AFAR, Southern Living, Wanderlust, Lonely Planet...

Of course, I don't know what my heart will discover on this trip. So I can't just say HEY I'm writing about, say, mezcal. But I *would* love to get in talks with editors who are interested in working with me, when I find a story during this trip.

Please tag your favorite editors!

Last time I went on an international press trip, the stars aligned and I was able to write for @oxfordamerican.bsky.social about the parallels between Grenada, Memphis and New Orleans.
