No one sees or writes like Judith Hannah Weiss. She eyes the ordinary we've long stopped seeing and filets it, splaying open its innards for us all to see. That she makes me laugh in the process is a bonus. She will tell you her brain works differently in the wake of a terrible car accident years ago. But she has always been a writer and she uses that talent to show us her world, and ours in a light we've never before seen.
I always wonder about books I may have missed. Cassie P. wants you to read the best books you've never heard of whether they are just released or got lost in the shuffle and noise around the books everyone hears about all the time. I love this.
Robyn Ryle thinks too much about the things I'm thinking about all the time, then she writes about them and makes me see them totally differently. Books. Writing. Thoughts. So many thoughts.
Books, great ones, by Latinx authors and others live here. I love the interviews that highlight emerging authors and their work.
With courage and love. This is how I want and need to face the threats that loom. I love the premise of this newsletter.
Lyle McKeaney is a dad to Em, a little girl with cerebral palsy who challenges him daily to be more than he sometimes feels he can be. He's a searcher. He's a writer. He is often funny. Always on target. He's got plans. Check him out.
Children need good books and the adults in their lives need them too. Sarah Miller understands this and even those of us without young ones to read with can appreciate her reviews and insights.
Jami Attenberg's weekly newsletter is one of the few that is consistently valuable to me as a writer. Here is where writers find support, encouragement and #1000wordsofsummer.
