I spent the summer reporting this essay on why it seems harder than ever to sell a book right now—especially if it isn't a debut and comes with the dreaded "sales track." I'm grateful to the writers, agents, editors, publishers & experts who spoke to me for this piece: thewalrus.ca/the-publishi...
“Seventeen, flirting with drunk boys when their girlfriends went home. Their beautiful fifteen-year-old girlfriends, their chemically straightened hair, their white designer jeans.” @ruthmadievsky.bsky.social, “In High School [We all knew...]” @therumpus.net therumpus.net/2020/04/27/n...
my dad is heartbroken because someone snatched the toy stomach he got my toddler at a medical conference
