Just another lost soul on the socials. Sometimes I write fiction. Work = digital comms. Homeland = Brooklyn/lesbitarian. Opinions = all mine, for better or worse.
As a #novelist I treasure the marriage of idiosyncratic dialogue and unspeakable thought. Plays that break the fourth wall get this sensibility. Liberation and Prince Faggot are two to learn from. And they’re both poignant & hilarious too! #writingcommunity #theatre #dramaticwriting

I barely listened to #audiobooks until I made one, and now I’m hooked. I agree with the NYPL’s head librarian: it’s different than reading a book but a charm in itself. I think of it as an additive, why increased accessibility benefits us all. #booksky

I can get crabby about the big awards but Orbital is an odd little gem of a novel. Gorgeous and hypnotic. The cure for SpaceX overload. #BookerPrize #writing
